Sweets, are you already getting all your entitled too?
If you are, you can add some rent assisitance to that, and that will be your f/n income.
I *think* if your f/n rent is at least $320, you can get $140 in Rent assistance.

So if your going to pay around $500 p/f, $140 is covered.

Make sure your getting PPS, FTB A & B and child support. And apply for RA as soon as you get a place to get the payments asap.

I *think* the department of housing can help with bonds if your on the books?? I know they used to.
Call and ask what assisstance you can get to get private rental.

Its hard, but it can be done......
