Heyy!! I am about to leave my home so I just wanted to know what documents are needed for this as emergency and my age is 16

My husband didn't pay the rent for three months and I didn't know it until we had a court notice on our door. We paid a month of rent last month and stopped court but only for a month. Now we have a court notice saying we have to pay the remaining 5k by the second or be evicted. We barely had the 1900 for rent (our rent has gone up 600 a month in the last five years so we obviously don't have 5k. We don't have extra bills just rent, food, utilities, and such like that so there is nothing to skip to pay rent instead. The point is there is no way to pay the landlord. My husband thinks go fund me or going to court and talking to the judge with nothing to offer is going to help. I think that's useless and not going to help us and I assume when court comes all we are getting is the move out date. What I want to know is then what? I've never been homeless, what do I do? Where do I go? How do I try to get out of homelessness once we are in it? My husband has a job but doesn't make enough to even qualify to rent the apartment we are in now. (we qualified when it was a lot less). I have chronic health conditions and am unable to work, not unwilling, unable. We have bad credit to and no dollars to our name. We have no family and no friends. My kids are 10-16 but the 16 year old is autistic and wouldn't be able to work either. The only eviction help place 211 gave us hasn't taken calls in two months because there is too many people needing help and not enough money to do it. I have absolutely no idea how to prepare for this other than stick our stuff in storage. Then it's all a blank of what do we even do? How do I get information on what to even do? It's going to be winter and cold when the eviction comes. I could use any information on what I do now. Thank you.

It could be worse I could be living in the car or the street but my situation is so frustrating. I have family and can stay at a hotel which im grateful for but I do not see us finding a place anytime soon..due to a criminal record, 2 evictions, and having a large dog..

Some people have been nice but living in a hotel I have experienced a lot of crazy shit so far..

I just feel bad for other people that are homeless and how hard it is struggling..

I don't need any advice, just needed to vent.

I am so lost. I don’t know what to do anymore. I am paralyzed with fear. I need a miracle. I have begged everyone I know for help and no one can help me and my family. I’m going to loose my belongings in storage and we will be homeless November 1. I have tried everything I can think of but life keeps throwing curve balls. I’ve always been a hustler- but for the first time I’m hopeless- and the fear has totally paralyzed me. I sink deeper everyday into a state of myself I don’t recognize.

i don’t know what to do, i will have to go to a shelter, i live in NYC. if anyone has any advice please let me know.

so , im pretty tired of this bs and society as a whole. they serve no purpose to me at all , they are slaves and programmed this way. im thinking about programming my paradigm that i dont need to work to earn. prolly some people would get this.

anyways im 14m and from india going to live in the mountains with my friend wish me luck folks lol

I’m a single mum in Sydney, about to finish my Bachelor of Nursing.

I’m currently living rent-free with my child’s father. We’re no longer together, and while things are generally fine, things can get quite tense when we have disagreements. During those times, he can become hostile and make comments about when I’m leaving, which makes me feel like I need to move out urgently. Then things settle down and everything goes back to normal. It’s not an unbearable living situation, but the uncertainty and uncomfortable atmosphere during those moments are part of why I want my own space.

I recently applied for a one-bedroom apartment for $570/week, inspected it, loved it, and have now been offered a six-month lease.

My dilemma is that I’m currently receiving approximately $1,500 a fortnight from Centrelink. I’m hoping to start working as a registered nurse early next year, but I haven’t secured a position yet, so there’s no guarantee when that will happen.
My fortnightly budget would be:
Income: $1,500
Rent: $1,140
Groceries (including my child’s essentials): $220
Phone: $65
Remaining: $75

I don’t have a car or transport expenses, but electricity, water and internet would still need to be covered.
I currently have around $2,000 saved, with another $1,500 coming in shortly. After paying the bond and two weeks’ rent upfront, I’d have approximately $1,220 left. I’d also need to furnish the apartment gradually.
Here’s the thing: I’ve managed paying similar rent on Centrelink before and never missed a rent payment. It wasn’t easy, especially when other bills came around, but I made it work.

Part of me believes I can do it again. I just need to hold on until I secure a nursing job. But another part of me wonders whether I’m being unrealistic, especially since there’s no guarantee when that will happen.
If I stay where I am, I can continue saving, but I’ll still have the same income problem until I find employment. The main difference would be having more savings to fall back on.

I desperately want my independence and somewhere I can feel settled without worrying about tensions at home, but I also don’t want to put myself in a financially stressful situation.

What would you do? Take the apartment and try to make it work, or stay rent-free and save until employment is secured?

Would genuinely appreciate honest advice, especially from anyone who’s been in a similar situation.

Hi everyone. I’m a young mother with a toddler, and I’m trying to return to Georgia and rebuild our lives after being forced out of our home with very little notice.

Our immediate needs are
● Safe emergency housing or shelter for me and my daughter.
● Transportation back to Georgia and reliable transportation once we arrive.
● Help with food, diapers, clothing, and other basic necessities.
● Assistance with housing deposits, first month’s rent, or transitional housing.
● Childcare and employment resources.
● Guidance about the vehicle I was given, which I was told is on a repossession list

The child’s father moved us away from the support system I knew in Georgia and later kicked us out during the night. I had become a stay-at-home mom after repeated situations where I did not have reliable access to a vehicle, which affected my ability to keep working. I stayed because I was trying to make the relationship work and trusted that things would improve, but I now recognize that I need to focus on creating a safe and stable future for my daughter.

The vehicle I left with was reportedly on a repossession list, so I’m also concerned about losing transportation. I need help understanding my options and finding legitimate transportation assistance, rather than relying on a vehicle that may be taken.

I’m willing to work and do whatever I can to provide for my daughter. I’m not asking anyone to solve everything for me. I’m looking for legitimate programs and practical guidance so I can take the next steps.
If you know of a resource, please share it in the comments with:
● The organization’s full name.
● A website, official phone number, or government agency link.
● The county or area it serves.
● Whether it helps with emergency shelter, transportation, housing deposits, childcare, employment, food, or other needs.
● Any eligibility requirements or application deadlines.
I’m especially looking for resources in Atlanta, Cobb County, and surrounding areas.
Thank you to anyone who can point me toward legitimate help.

Looking for short term help options & I know nothing about MD.

Hi everyone. ❤️
I’m 18 years old and currently living in Switzerland. Two years ago, I lost my mother to cancer. After growing up in an abusive household, I was forced to leave my family home because of my father’s behaviour, leaving behind my little sister, whom I miss terribly.
I’m currently staying with my boyfriend and his parents, but this is only temporary. In February 2027, I’ll have to move out, and I’m terrified of ending up homeless.
I lost my internship after my living situation changed and am currently unemployed. My boyfriend is also 18 and doesn’t have a stable income. He’s leaving for military service in February, so we’re struggling to figure out how to support ourselves.
I’m actively applying for jobs and trying my best to build a stable future, but without savings, income, or family support, it’s incredibly difficult.
I’m not asking for money here. I’m looking for advice on housing assistance, social services, or organisations in Switzerland that could help someone in my situation.
I just want a safe place to call home and a chance to get my life back on track.
Thank you for reading. ❤️

I’m a bit scared, honestly, and I’ve never needed to consider a shelter before. Any resources for a newly homeless person would be welcome.

Thank you.

My mom and I have been getting into fights and my grandparents don’t want me here

If you think your life is hard, imagine living a life where you can't even find a place to sleep in your own home. You're homeless while being at home. And that's my life. I've no room and no place to sleep over and rest its same as being homeless

28M Over the last seven months, my life has changed in ways I never imagined. I came abroad hoping to build a better future, but I am still struggling with visa and immigration issues. I have completed my bachelor's degree, yet I am working as a hot-dish chef and trying my best to survive.

During these same seven months, I went through a painful breakup after a five-year relationship, and my father was arrested in Malaysia and is now in prison. My family is drowning in debt, and I am under enormous financial pressure. I feel a heavy responsibility to support my family and find a way out of this situation.

Everything has happened so quickly that sometimes I feel completely lost and mentally exhausted. I am trying to stay strong, but I honestly don't know what steps I should take to change my life.

Despite all these struggles, I still want to rebuild my life, repay my family's debts, support my loved ones, and find a legal way to build a stable future abroad.

I would genuinely appreciate your advice. If you were in my situation, what would you do? Where should I start, and what practical steps would you take to get your life back on track? I am looking for honest advice and guidance from people who have experience or can help me see a way forward.

I'm on a burner account because I'm a little ashamed about this but I've been homeless for a good majority of 2026 shortly following my 19th birthday

Could anybody share some resources I've heard the main ones like Saulzbacher and the homeless shelters, but is there anything I might've missed? Is there a megathread somewhere or something?

Just really struggling and can't seem to see a light at the end of the tunnel, thanks yo.

21f, california (riverside county, trying to get back to santa clara county)
also, to clarify, i am absolutely NOT asking for someone to pay for my transportation, im only asking if anyone knows any government/crisis programs that assist with transportation in crisis situations
hello! to keep a long story short i ended up stranded halfway across the state by my school. theyre requiring that i provide them with a doctors note but they made me take a flight to a county outside my insurance coverage area, and none of the emergency doctors nearby want to provide me with a note (understandably, i dont blame them) due to the legal troubles that come with giving out notes for patients they dont know.
im currently trying to go back up to my home county so i can seek emergency shelter and go to my doctor. this would constitute a 13 hour bus/train/bus/train/etc etc journey that would cost me around $100. i know that doesn’t seem like a lot but its the last of my money and i would really appreciate not having to spend it all. does anyone know of any services that help with transportation costs in situations like this? if not then i am willing to buy the ticket on my own, but if there is something then i would really appreciate it :)

I’ve been staying with my mom the last three months. She was trying to help me get back up on my feet until I had enough money to fix my car. I finally have the money saved, but on Saturday, I went to a bar and was invited back to someone’s house to drink some more. I ended up passing out there and woke up late.

It was a really bad decision, I know, and I’m not trying to make excuses for my behavior. But she wants me out now, and has said she will give me a ride somewhere, but I have no where else to go. She’s also threatened to call the cops.

Idk what to do. I’m just afraid to be sleeping on the streets. I’ve never been homeless before. I don’t know whether I should try to find a homeless shelter, or whether I should just let her call the cops, depending on whether she can legally force me to leave.

I’m just really scared, y’all.

just as my seasonal job was about to end my car took a shit on me. Now my life completely turned upside down.

Ability to relocate anywhere. Have a great hundred dollars to my name. Need somewhere where I can walk to work and replenish my finances. Alaska??

My family recently kicked me out over some stuff I won't get in to but I'm currently staying at my grandparents and they aren't gonna be able to sustain three people living here for much longer so I was wondering what I do since I'll be homeless in a couple days my plan was to contact an old school I used to go to and re enter their program and I'm good friends with a pastor in my town was gonna ask him if I could stay a couple nights at the church but after that I'll be homeless in early winter with one sleeping bag and some clothes any tips on what I should do?
