First off let me start off by saying hi to everyone. My situation is a little like most but I am a single mother of a 17yr. old. I was just recently laid off in Feb. '08. I've always had a good work history I had only been working at this job 3 months and they come tell us that the company we were working for was in debt (major) and they were closing our office along with some others. I immediately applied for unemployment, went to get assist from local social services office for assistance (food stamps & medicaid) but I was denied both. Can u believe how NC offices operate? I take medicine and I don't have any insurance. But the only good thing that came out off it is they paying for me to start school in April. But I need any kind of help or any kind of information to get help. Because it is truly hard right car payment is getting behind, rent is on a string must come up with something quick. I really don't know what to do right now stress is a killer. But if someone has any ideas or knowledge of anything please please let me know. If you need verification of anything I'm telling will be happy to show proof. I just need help!!!

 It's funny how the public assistance office work.  They will rather help people who depend on the system and who don't work, but when  a working person who is down on their luck needs help they take you through a whole bunch of red tape to get approved. I am praying for you and everyone who is in a situation as we are.

Hi. Ive been in your position and when public assitance denies you and it took all of your pride and courage to ask for their help in the first place......WOW what a blow to you.   I dont understand why they denied you though.  Can you talk to a supervisor?  Get involved in a local church or call the Salvation army or Red cross.  I myself worked in a professional office for years and never recieved help. When I lost it all and needed it I must tell you it took alot of repeat phone calls and as the time ticked and the bills closed in there came a point where I gave up and asked my family only to be ridiculed and rejected. So I went the next step and thru the phone book sought out crisis centers and finally found help with a foundation called families first which was believe it or not thru my daughters school counselor.  So just a few thoughts and I pray for you and your daughter to recieve the help you need.
