Hello i was on the internet just browsing threw but manly looking for programs that would be able to help me and my three children. my situation sounds similar to many of the ladys on this page. I am a 32 years old women and me and my children are currently homeless and living in a battered womens shelter. I ran from another state because i was afraid for me and my childrens life and i wanted to see my children grow in a stable environment with a brighter future. Since we have been here in charlotte i see my childrens attitudes improving. They seem more happier and excited about living in a new state. i have stopped all contact with my abuser and he doesnt know where me and my children are. What makes are new beginning hard to deal with is we have been homeless for almost for months now. It hurt to here my children ask mommy when are we going to are own home and i don't know how to respond to that because i don't know what are next move is. The place we stay in now is only a 30 day stay but the shelter has extended me another week so that i could still have time to look foe a job so that i can be able to get housing for me and my children. But by the end of this week(friday the 10th) if a have not found a job by then the shelter is going to make us leave and seek shelter somewhere else because like i said before they only give you a 30 day stay here unless you are working and have housing in line. I am in need of help. I don't want to keep jumping from shelter to shelter because of my kids ages 2,6,9 they need a proper home and bed to lay there heads at night. The shelters here in charlotte are so conjested and full of sick mothers and children and i don't want to put my children threw that anymore. I currently found a beautiful church home which i attend on a regular basis and i pray that the lord will send me a angel to help get me and my children out of the situation we are in. Please if there is someone out there that loves the lord and lives to serve him and help others please be are angel and help us. Thanks and gob bless.
