Unemployment ran out before I found work after 18 years as a home health aide

I exhausted my benefits and have 18 interviews lined up. It has been a long 23 weeks. I am willing to take a temporary job. Did you find short-term work?

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

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