Home needed for single father of three (section 8, for rent)

[jlaytonjr1]

Hello to everyone reading this. I am in desperate need of a place to call home. After separating from my children's mother, I had to move myself and my three kids in with my parents. They are very abusive mentally, but not physically. I need to get my children away from this!

The problem is, I have very little money. I was fired from Wal-Mart because I have a bad back and severe depression. This has also prevented me from getting another job. I am getting about $500 - $600 a month in cash assistance. Still trying to get some kind of disability.

I am looking for a place in Twin Valley school district, where I can work in exchange for rent or part of the rent. I am a hard worker (provided my back lets me) and a quick learner. I am very skilled with computers. I am good at all types of yard work. I have carpentry experience. I love all animals and would not mind working on a farm (again, if my back permits it).

Right now, I'm desperate enough to try just about anything. If anyone can help me, I would be forever in your debt. Thank you.

Sincerely,

John Layton, Jr.

Did you apply for section 8 housing?

I have looked into it before and I was always told that they were not accepting new applications. I am going to look into it again, tho, since it's been about a year since I last checked it out. Thanks for the advice/reminder!
