(ask your landlord for a letter, saying how much your rent is and what you owe and late fees, some landlords will do that, some won't)and take it with you, take all SS cards for everyone in the house, and a bill, and or lease, and proof he's trying to get social security. It's not easy to get , but help is out there. We just had to get a title loan, on our truck, with no way to pay it back, just to pay part of our rent we owed. I was layed off, and my husband, may be going on disability, we are not sure yet. Food banks, churches, food stamps etc. get it all! (they also have emergency food stamps, but you will have to spend a whole day at the Tdhs. Make sure you take proof of everything, it will be faster. Check out some of the charities , in my link on this page. I live in Irving, not sure about food banks in mesquit, except whats in that list, Good Luck, and God Bless

The Child Care Assistance program helps low-income families to pay for the child care they need while working, looking for work, attending school or training. Monthly payments are based on the number of hours the parents work, look for work, or attend school or training, the amount charged by the child care provider, family size and household income. Parents can select any Class A child care center, school-based before and after school program, registered family child day care home, or in-home provider.Phone: ( 888 ) 524 - 3578

Parents can select any Class A child care center, school-based before and after school program, licensed child care center determined by the Department of Defense, registered Family Child Day Care Home, or In-Home provider active in the CCAP provider directory.
Qualifying for Child Care Assistance

Proof of citizenship or alien status of children in need of care.
Verification of disability (doctor’s statement, etc) if not receiving SSI, Social Security Disability benefits, or VA Disability benefits.
Immunization verification for all children in need of care.

The amount that is paid is based on household size and income, the number of hours you and any other adults/parents work or attend an educational or training program, the number of hours your child is in care, and the applicable maximum rate. You will be responsible for paying the provider the difference between the total amount charged and the amount the program pays.
Providing false information, withholding information, or failing to report changes is subject to penalty under the law. If providing false information or withholding information causes an overpayment for child care, you may be required to repay to the Office of Family Support the amount of ineligible benefits that you received. If you purposely fail to report any information that causes you to receive benefits you are not eligible for, you may have fraud charges brought against you and you may be disqualified from participating in the program. If intentional program violation is established, penalties are as follows: (1) six months for the first violation, (2) twelve months for the second violation, and (3) twenty-four months for the third and for any additional violations.
What is the Louisiana Quality Rating System?
It is a quality rating system (QRS) for child care. The goal of QRS is to increase the quality of child care and early learning for all children throughout Louisiana, and to give parents and consumers the ability to understand, assess and demand higher quality.
In the event that a hurricane or other disaster occurs and produces widespread evacuation and extensive property damage, action may need to be taken to help ensure the safety of all children being cared for by licensed, registered, or certified providers. If a disaster occurs and you are in one of the AFFECTED PARISHES, it may be necessary to suspend your license, provider registration, or certification WITHOUT NOTICE until your facility or home can be verified as safe to provide child care. This may be accomplished by a required State Fire Marshall inspection, State Health inspection, on-site Licensing inspection and/or other agency-mandated procedure to ensure the safety of children in care. Your license, provider registration, or certification would remain suspended until your facility is verified as safe.
If such a disaster occurs, check the DCFS website to determine if your facility or home is located in an affected parish and for additional information and instructions in the procedures for re-instatement of your license, registration, or certification. In addition, licensed child care providers should contact the Child Care Licensing and Regulatory Section at (225) 342-9905 as soon as possible once the hurricane or event has passed if instructions on how to reinstate your license is not available on the website. All other child care providers should contact the DCFS Provider Directory at 1-800-680-9098 for instructions on how to reinstate Child care Assistance Program (CCAP) eligibility.
If you do not follow the necessary procedures to reinstate your license and eligibility for CCAP, it may result in a break in your licensure status, closure of your licensing file and/or a break in or loss of CCAP payments.
Other Services Provided to Families and Child Care Providers
In addition to the subsidy program, Child Care and Development Fund is used for a variety of other activities that improve the availability of child care in Louisiana.
The Child Care Assistance and Referral program provides financial assistance for child care to low and moderate income Fairfax County families who are working, or who are in education/training programs and need assistance with paying for the cost of child care. The program pays for child care in centers, family child care homes, or School Age Child Care.
Who is Eligible?
Low and moderate income families who work or are in training (see chart below).
Families that receive Temporary Assistance for Needy Families.
Families that participate in the Virginia Initiative for Employment Not Welfare program.
Families that care for Fairfax County children who are in Foster Care.
Families that are part of the Child Protective Services system.
Families with children with special needs, as well as homeless families that apply while they are in a shelter.

Based on income, size of family and the number of children in care.
Paid directly to the provider.
How to Apply
Call CCAR at 703-449-8484 for more information. You can also download a CCAR application.
The Department of Human Services can help eligible working families pay for child care. You do not have to participate in the RI Works Program to qualify for child care assistance.
Eligibility
To be eligible to receive child care assistance, families must meet income requirements. The number of hours that a parent works or is participating in a work activity, approved training or education program are also factors. Depending on a family's income, they may have to pay a co-payment. The amount of the co-payment depends on a family's income. See Family Income and Co-Payment Guidelines for the Child Care Assistance Program.
For parents that participate in the Rhode Island Works Program, there is no income limit for child care because if a family is eligible for RI Works, they would meet the income requirements for the Child Care Assistance Program.
Choosing a Child Care Provider
Parents can choose their child care provider and may use more than one provider to meet their child care needs. Options for child care include:
a licensed child care center or after-school program;
a licensed family child care provider;

care in the child's home by an approved provider.

ATTENTION! LICENSED CHILD CARE HOME PROVIDERS CARING FOR 3 ADDITIONAL SCHOOL AGE CHILDREN DURING SUMMER During the school year the law, I.C. 12-7-2-33.7, allows a provider to care for 3 additional school age children (grade 1 and above) as long as child/staff ratios are met. However, to care for the 3 additional children during a break in the school year of more than 4 weeks, you must get certified (I.C. 12-17.2-5-6.3(b)). The certification is only good for 1 year and must be recertified prior to each summer or break. At the above citation in the law (http://www.in.gov/fssa/files/IC-12-17.2-ch5.pdf), you will find the requirements for this certification (they are different than during the school year). Please contact your child care home licensing consultant if you would like to see if you qualify for the +3 school age children during the summer months.
To continue receiving child care voucher money for school age children during the summer months, you must qualify and obtain the +3 certification from your licensing consultant. Failure to do so could impact your CCDF payments. Consultants will begin certifying and recertifying providers beginning April 1, 2010. (posted Feb. 2010)
NEW FINGERPRINTING SERVICES AVAILABLE The State of Indiana has contracted with L-1 Identity Solutions to provide fingerprinting services statewide effective 5/8/2009. With the new process, they will offer more locations and a variety of days and times. They have contracted with locations other than police agencies to do the fingerprinting such as UPS stores, hotel conference rooms, government buildings, etc. Prints will be electronically scanned rather than ink printed which will reduce the number of prints being returned because they were "bad prints". The turnaround time is also much quicker. Because everyone must pre-register either online or over the telephone and prints are submitted electronically at the time of printing, the chance of prints being lost in the mail is eliminated. Some of the differences in the process are:
* Locations (available on website at http://www.l1enrollment.com/) * Electronically scanned prints * Receipt is given at the time of printing as proof * Wait time of less than 15 minutes * Quicker turnaround time of results * Slight increase in fees (available on website at www.L1enrollment.com)
Licensees will continue to get notification when it is time for them to be reprinted. Just as with the old procedure, your fingerprints are not stored by L-1, the FBI, or the State Police. They are only compared to the FBI and State Police databases. The State Police (in particular, Inez Ford) will no longer be able to help you with your fingerprint questions. Please follow the simple step-by-step instructions.
CLARIFICATIONS TO LICENSED CHILD CARE HOME INTERPRETATIVE GUIDE The Bureau of Child Care (BCC) wishes to inform licensed child care home providers that some clarifications have been added to the “Interpretative Guidelines” manual for your child care program. Please note that these are clarifications to the existing regulations, NOT new regulations.

Investing in Seattle's children and families is a smart strategy. Healthy families provide the kind of loving and supportive environment that children need to thrive. Healthy families also build safe and vibrant communities and strengthen neighborhood schools, which in turn benefits the entire city.
The City of Seattle builds community and organizational partnerships to provide a strong support system for children and families in five primary areas:
* Family Support * School Readiness and Preschool * Child Care * After-School Services * Nutrition
The Seattle Human Services Department focuses on providing these important services to children, low-income families and special populations such as deaf and deaf/blind parents, teen parents and immigrants and refugees.
This is a wonderful idea! I have thought of doing this for 4 years now. I cant wait to do it! I think it will do wonderfully in our area. First I have to find out the proper channels to take. Also, I plan on offering Coffee's and other "virgin" drinks. Snacks and such for the children as well. I want to have a large window also, for those moms who need to be able to see thier children, in order to have the full relaxing experience. We will have highly qualified early childhood educators/caregivers to keep the kids content while thier momma's are getting primped.

For families dealing with specail needs kids, I did an article on Easter Seals. They offer child care, after-school care and many more services! here's my article:
Unfortunately, so many of us are in a similar boat. That doesn't help you, though, does it?
I find that it helps to call the places you've applied to 24 hrs after making the initial contact and then 48 and 72 hrs. In this economy, many places are looking for those people who demonstrate their eagerness for the job. I won't say it always works, but it doesn't hurt. I applied to Barnes and Noble and went in at least 3 times and called. It took a month, but they finally called for an interview. Don't be afraid to try McDonald's. They almost always hire even if they're not advertising for help.
You might try places like Salvation Army, United Way, local advocacy centers, and churches. You might also consider finding a homeless shelter that will take you in if you should find yourself in the worst case scenario... you have to have an address to receive public assistance.
IS there anyone you can ask to make even one car payment for you? It would put you in a better position to negotiate with the lender and they might be more willing to extend some leniency. My husband and I have lost 3 cars in the last 4 years. It can be difficult to swallow. Try to keep your car out of sight--in the garage or at a friends or something. Eventually, you may not have a choice, though.
Have you applied for unemployment? They also have a jobsite you can post your resume on as well as jobs that are posted. These are not always listed on other jobsite pages.
Spend some time making calls and finding out what services are available in your area. There are agencies that will help with rent and utilities. Also, see if your township trustee offers any assistance. Agencies are hard up for funds right now, too, so you may have to go to more than one place to get what you need. Don't be afraid to use food pantries for food, it will make your food stamps last longer. Often, food pantries offer personal care needs, too--things like deoderant and shampoo, etc. Have you applied for/ do you qualify for TANF?
I hope these suggestions will offer some help to you. I wish you all the best.... keep your chin up and keep pluggin' away.
I know there are a lot of people out there that do not know how to start looking for government assistance. So I thought I might be of some help. I you need help and don't know where to start the process then post a message and I will try to help you the best I can. I have been on several programs and am willing to help.
So, I woke up this morning and drove all around my my town and the next town looking for help wanted signs or something but there was nothing. I am totally at a loss. I don't know what else I can do, I have my resume posted on every employment website I could find and I get no responses. I am really depressed at this point and just trying to keep myself together.
I am living in Shippensburg PA and am about to be homeless. I have applied for every job around and registered with every employment agency within 50 miles and no calls. I was able to get food stamps from the county but I haven't paid my car payment since January and I know its going to be repo'ed soon. I don't know what to do. I have put my resume on every website I can find and have even offered child care, elderly care, domestic care....
Hi, I am a single mom from rancho cucamonga. I just went through a rough split with the father of my daughter and he left us 4 weeks after she was born. She is only 2 1/2 months old and I desperately need to work. As much as I want to stay home with my daughter and take care of her I need to make a stable life for the two of us.
I just got a job offer which I have to start April 27th 2009. So I need to find a sitter soon or a better job that I can afford to hire my own, or a stay at home job.
My goals: In an ideal world I would like to continue school. Have an awesome nanny that is attentive, patient, tender, and educated to take care of my daughter while I finish school and work. I would love to work partially from home.
I need help with a sitter for the first 3 months that I work so I can get enough money to afford one myself.
I currently have no income and no money aside to support myself until I get my first paycheck.
Thank you to anyone who can offer advice or assistance.
Many childcare centres frown upon parents who still bring their children to the facility when they are clearly sick. While this may seem irresponsible and disrespectful to the centre and the perfectly healthy children, what are you to do when there are no other options?
Many permanent or full time positions now offer family leave for situations such as this and some parents choose to utilise their own sick or holiday leave to stay at home with their child. This is particularly difficult for parents with relatively young children who often get repeatedly sick with colds and minor viruses when first attending daycare.
The other concern is what if you have a deadline that has to be met? While the good ol’ grandparents, aunties, uncles and friends make great babysitters, often these situations arise at short notice and during the working week. Gone are the days where it was deemed appropriate to bring your child into work and sit them in the corner with some crayons and paper, so what options do you have?
With the latest technology many jobs can be completed from home. This is an option that you should talk about with you boss prior to a child becoming ill. Utilising your time in lieu is another option. Many people work extra hours and combine this time to take a day off a month or fortnight. If you recognise early on in your child’s life that they are prone to getting sick, then maybe this a way that you can collect extra family leave. This option should also be spoken about with you superiors. Remember preparation is the key! Discuss your options when you first start back at work so everyone knows the plan. It is probably wise to keep other colleagues abreast of your projects and have a ‘wing man’ if you for some reason you cannot meet a deadline
I just got my hands on 5 , 5 page, handouts with local Dallas County Assistance. Including Family Shelters, Mortagage/Rent Assistance, Food Pantries, Child Care, and Utility Bill Assistance(electric, gas, and Water). I am going to use them for my webpage.
If you have limited access to resources like internet or even just the ability to make a phone call for a job (including fax services) Here is a listing of WORK Force sites ran by the Dept. of Labor that offer these services for free.
The discount medical plans of AmeriPlan® offer a reduction in the cost of medical, dental, vision, pharmaceutical and chiropractic services. AmeriPlan® discount benefit programs are not insurance, nor are they an alternative to or substitution for insurance coverage. Since they are not health insurance, members must use AmeriPlan® providers and members are responsible for payment to the AmeriPlan® providers at point of service of discount healthcare fees incurred. If you currently have insurance, you should be aware that canceling that policy may make it difficult to later obtain coverage. AmeriPlan® recommends that you speak to your insurance agent or your company's insurance administrator before canceling any health insurance policy for any reason.

I am interested in the same idea mothers with children should be able to go places with thier kids I have always thought this was a great business idea. I would love to open a spa with childcare I want to be an esthetician. I am surprised more businesses do not offer this ie Tanning salons. Glad to know I am not the only one with this idea
I'm a 22 year old single mom. I've finally realized that my baby's father (my boyfriend) is not going to be any support to our son in the future. I know that I've got to bet a better education so that we can have a good life and I can give him the things my parents gave me. I've made some mistakes in my life, but I'm ready to put the past behind me and look to the future.
I've been accepted to the local tech school to study medical assisting, now I have to put together the money I need to support myself and pay for my school.
Any assistance or resources would be greatly appreciated.
I'm in serious need of dental care. This may sound strange but I had a filling fall out while flossing my teeth several months ago and I know the tooth decay has gotten worse. I haven't been to a dentist in almost ten year because we have no medical or dental insurance to cover the expense. I'd appreciate any help anyone could offer. Thank you.
