Hi, my name's Tim English. For years I was homeless and traveled from town to town, all across America. I ate out of the trash and begged for change. I got into this situation after my wife left me. I was so depressed I gave up on everything, and lost my apartment and everything I owned. I lived outside for years. Then I was in jail for a while due to a self-defense situation where I was charged with assault. I sat in jail for nine months (my family members couldn't afford to bail me out) before the district attorney came to me with a "deal": I could plead guilty and just get a couple months more in jail, or take it to trial and risk going to prison for five years. I was scared of going to prison, so I took the deal. Now I'm on parole and can't find a job. No one will hire me due to my felony record. I've applied for foodstamps, but they only gave $50 last month. I don't need much. I'd just like some help with rent and food. I wish I could find a job... I've been trying to find something online but haven't been able to find anything yet. I found my father online through Facebook, and I hadn't seen him since I was six years old. I'm staying with him now, but all he gets is about $1000 a month for his VA check, so it's not enough to support us both. If anyone could help, or at least point me in the right direction on how to get on online job, I'd be very grateful. Right now we're about a month behind on the rent, which is $400. We've been going to the food pantry for food. If anyone could help, or at least point me in the right direction on how to get on online job, I'd be very grateful. Thank you.
