I just gave birth to a baby girl 5lbs 7oz . we went to court 3/20/07 and the judge had no heart and didnt want to hear my side of the story we broke our lease because i married in 4/06 to my husban of 12 years and we live in subsidizehousing and my landloard told me since my husban has a drug record back from 1990 he cant be put on the lease so i still let him stay any way cause we are in love and have two kids. so the judge said it was violating the lease. we have no help! im out on medical leave and he cant find a full time job just part time at the press. We ask welfare to help but they say he makes to much? ya 140.00 a week. we just have enough for diaper were in need of cloths, and housing asap or will be on the streets with 2 kids!!!! email us if y can help karriann28@yahoo.com  wev live in egg harbor township n.j

Hi Karri, Does your husband work? Do you work? Maybe your husband could provide for his family -by just renting a small apartment for his family until you guys get on your feet. good luck

They may have information on who you can call for help with your homelessness issue. There was also a list of HUD grants and etc. when I did a google search for "low rent housing in New Jersey". Hope there is some help forthcoming. God Bless. Grandma Steph.

Karri, Nice to hear from you. I do not understand what your husband's former drug use has to do with now, after all if he is not having problems with drugs in any way now, why do they insist on breaking up a family? That is one of the things that has contributed to the demise of poor families through the years...the fact that many people on "welfare" (excuse that word, I dislike it, but for lack of a better one)are single parents is because the other parent was kept out of the home for a long time now, just so that the custodial parent could get help. God forbid one should live with the other parent of their children and ask the state for anything! The system forced people to live the way they do and it is sad really. I remember back when I had a brand new baby, (my 18 year old, a 5 year old daughter (the mother of the babies in New York) and 2 step children all living with me, and my ex-husband...We both worked, but didn't have any support for his kids, as matter of fact we had the kids but were still paying support to the ex-wife because the case was pending in court and she (the ex) kept getting continuance after continuance. We couldn't get any help (even food stamps) because we were married and even with his kids, my daughter and our daughter in the home and paying out child support even while we had his kids, and getting NO support money for my daughter from a previous marriage. I worked at a country club as a bartender that was quite a ways from our home and my husband worked at a sporting goods store in the warehouse...It was a very difficult time and had it not been for the kindness of many people who believed in our efforts to help his children from his first marriage to get out of their abusive life--we would have been out on the streets. I had a good friend who had five children with her then husband, who was a real jerk but she was Catholic and didn't want to be divorced and excommunicated from her church...she was going to teacher's college, raising the children alone and the system didn't care...told her to get him out of her house and find a lover to help her out. Back then she could live with a man who was not her husband, but not her own husband, who was the father of all five of her kids! Go Figure! A welfare worker actually told her to get a sugar daddy and move him into her home and not tell, that way she could still get some benefits! Talk about a mess, the Human Service system is soooooo messed up and it hasn't improved a bit through the years. One has to be practically destitute to get any help all. It is a very sad state of affairs. Please know that I remember you in my prayers and I think of your family and hope that there will be an answer to your situation. I don't know what sort of help there is available in Jersey, but there must be some way to find you a place. Are there any drug rehab programs that might be of help? We have a couple of options for people in recovery here in my town in Nebraska. It seems like there ought to be some sort of program that can help you out with housing while your husband works with them. I don't know if one has to have an ongoing drug problem or not but maybe there is something that you can fit into? I am going to look on the net and see if I can find anything at all and will let you know. Take Care, kiss the kids and hold on to them and your husband tightly...God hears our prayers. G-ma Steph.

Hey Karri, I got kicked off Sec 8 for having a HOUSE-SITTER last summer during weekends only for 2 mos, b/c the horrid neighbors kept breaking-in/vandalizing our house. Sec 8 claimed he was living there, even though I showed letters/witnesses that he wasnt. Now my two kids, and new baby are about to be homeless again. And no one of them give a crap, that is WA state for you. I called churches for help & NONE called back, b/c i got terminated from Sec 8 I am now not eligible for ANY state/Fed subsidized assist. Good luck with all.
