Unemployment ran out before I found work - 13 months and counting

The claim window is closing and I am worried about bills. It has been weighing on me all week. I wonder about extended programmes or help from local agencies. What did you do after benefits ran out?

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

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