Janet was dealing with a medical condition and was on temporary leave from work. Unfortunately, her leave was without pay. As a result, she fell behind on her rent payments and found herself threatened with eviction. She was afraid of becoming homeless and didn’t know what to do, so she called United Way’s 2-1-1 for help. An Information Specialist spoke with her about organizations in her community that offered financial assistance to those facing evictions.
A couple weeks later, Janet shared that she had received help from one of the community organizations and felt good about her finances. She was very thankful for the help she had received.
