[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 243724, member: 84"] K, her husband, and the grands have been living in a motel for months because they lost the house they were renting when her husband lost his job as a restaurant manager when the restaurant closed. He got another job as a dish washer that was supposed to "work" his way up to a manager. BUT the economy is so bad there that they haven't had enough business and he was once again found himself out of a job. To make this worse........The motel wants to remodel several rooms, including the one the kids have been renting, and want the kids to vacate. I'm betting they aren't offering another room because K's husband has no job. K and the grands will be homeless by the end of the week. She has tried the shelters. They're full. She has tried churches, and they're telling her right now it's members first and they're overwhelmed. Low Income housing still hasn't gotten back with her. She tried unemployment for her husband, they said he hasn't worked long enough to qualify. She is out of ideas. K stressed she is NOT requesting money and I did not offer. But she is getting panicked. Understandably so. I suggested going to welfare for emergency benefits. (they only had food stamps and insur) And bugging the h*ll out of the housing people. I need ideas, especially from anyone living in MO as to what is available. They only have her bio Mom there and I don't know but either she's not allowing them to come to her/or she is in the same situation. There is no other family/friends for them to go to. We're it and we're 3 states away. [B]And I have no desire to bring them here. [/B]Nor am I planning on sending money. Ideas please. I have a panicky mother on my hands. Thanks [/QUOTE]
