I would start at your local Job service, and Welfare/workfare office to get SNAP benefits, they usually have back to work programs as well as grants if you want to pursue Vocational Rehab

Go back to t he original job and see if they have any openings. Bring your current resume even though you have been a stay-at-home mom. Go to LinkedIn or Indeed.com Post your resume there and join. You will meet a lot of people and make some sontacts.

Melissa go to this site and upload a resume https://servicing-with-a-smile-llc.workable.com/backend/account/edit. I know how it feels to be hopeless and feels like there is nowhere or nobody to turn to. Never give up hope in the Lord tho. He's there when we feel like he isn't.

To feeling hopeless you are not hopeless and something is coming for you much better than you can imagine.

You are not hopeless there are so many woman in your shoes. Sometimes we take the wrong turn. Don’t be so hard on yourself. Pick up the pieces and move forward. Life doesn’t stop it keeps going. You can do whatever u set your mind 2 and I have faith that u will. Stay positive and continue to move focus. God has a plan forever thing that goes on in our life, but sometimes our faith is tested. Hopeless “no”.

Keep up hope dont despair there are plenty of people who have worse issues and come out the other end a whole lot better. The past you can't change it you'll be better off by not thinking about what could of been. I dont know your specific situation but I have a sister who had four kids under the age of 15 and a father who is a felon. My sister moved back to live with parents and went back to school and now is a nurse. Just one little example of someone who overcame the odds. So-called friends of hers and some family said when was not smart or its too hard or so and so couldn't do it, are you sure you want to try etc etc. I know right now it seems and impossible task looking at the bottom of a mountain that you are about to climb. But you can do anything if you are determined. Good luck great things will happen if your determined
