I struggled with $9.00/hour, I had to get a roommate. Once I got my business going it was much easier, good luck, but I suggest you wait.

Quoting SpurgeonMom:
i had learned even if section 8 housing is closed there are sub divisions that are like contractors of section 8 still goes strictly off of income. here they call it Denver coalition fort the homeless. i'm on a waiting list for a4 bedroom townhouse.
MD sucks for any help at all. It was like a 3 year wait when i tried to apply 5 years ago. Just stay at home, save ur money. You gotta figure in - daycare costs and such when you are at work *unless you have someone willing to watch her for free* Its expensive. I make a little more than you do and have a 7 year old daughter and struggle bad. =/ wait as long as you can and then move out. good luck tho!

Like another person mentioned they are housing programs that go based on your income but the waiting list is sometimes very long, best thing to do is sign up with as many programs/ building that go off income and put away all the money you don't need to use, this way you have money saved up for security and first month rent if they ask for it. Also make yourself a budget that way you actually know how much you will be able to afford in rent after all the other expenses you, this will give you a reality view of how much you should be spending on rent based on your income.
Without a governement assistance I think roommate is the only way. You could also find an older BF to live with. Older men appreciate you more and are more likely to have a stable job. Find a good one and maybe he would support you enough so that you could go to school and eventualy be self supporting.
I am not suggesting you shack up with just any guy, just that when you expand the age range of potential boy firends. My husband was 12 years older than me and it was wonderful. He was much more mature and well established in his career and owned his own home already.
Woohoo, we've decided to file for divorce
Do you think you'll ever remarry/get married?
