Can u help me relocate from domestic violence
im homeless on oxygen im 72 years old i need help getting place to live
I recently went through a dv situation and was off of work from surgery for almost 2 weeks . I had a place of my own that I gave up to fully commit on July 31st as I had kept it for months although I was not living there. I have been staying with different friends and can get my old place back. I am looking for possible help to do this. I work during the hours you are open and cannot take time off. Is there an online application that I can do ? I would not ask if I did not need it .
I applied was denied ser. I was supposed to have moved into brier hills in south haven. I had some problems and arrived 20 minutes late. The manager said that she wasn't going to give me the apartment then. It was a subsidized apartment. So I had given up my apartment Thursday to get that one. Due to needing a 2 bedroom.
