Free resources I wish I had found sooner after 5 years as an insurance claims processor

I want to share what helped me after being laid off as an insurance claims processor in Kansas City. This is my first time dealing with any of this. A food pantry near me has evening hours. Has anyone used the tax clinics?

I found free tax help through a community volunteer programme. It saved me a fee.

Call 211 to hear about local help with food, rent and utilities. It is free and open at all hours.
