Benefits are ending soon and I have no offer - 10 months and counting

My unemployment benefits end in 20 weeks and I have not found work as a machine operator. I have read a lot of threads here and could not find my exact situation. I wonder about extended programmes or help from local agencies. Where did you get help with bills?

Ask your state agency about any extended programmes. Mine did not advertise them, but they existed.

Food pantries and community kitchens helped us stretch the budget. No shame in using them.
