text: what federal agency offers assistance when you are about to be evicted from your apartment? i have been unemployeed for 3 months and my savings ran out before i could secure a full-time job.  the fact that i'm a man has made it diffucult to find help.  if i were a single mother with 8 kids, no problem.   i currently work part time but it's only brining in 250 per week, not enough to cover rent, car payment, lights etc. where can i get help? i would start with the salvation army. a great organization they can probably provide you with immediate assistance and point you in the right direction. i've been where you are at man and it was only the grace of god that spared me and my family. i was in your same situation with a wife and 3 kids. don't give it up, learn from the past and remember those in need once you get back on your own feet.
