Last week of benefits, options? - what worked for you?

The claim window is closing and I am worried about bills. I would rather hear the honest version than the polite one. I wonder about extended programmes or help from local agencies. What did you do after benefits ran out?

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

Call 211 to hear about emergency help with rent or utilities in your area. The list was longer than I expected.
