I was fired from my job due to long illness that disability insurance would not cover. I have one child that lives with me and my husband is self employed which means if there is no work, there is no money. My unemployment benefits were denied due to reasoning for being fired(violation of employee policy) which means I went over my PTO time due to insurance not covering. I need help paying bills until I can find employment. I look and apply for jobs daily but nothing yet.
Is there a grant out there for me that I do not have to pay back where I can get back on my feet and not lose my house
