you can apply for section 8 it takes a while to get on but it would pay for you housing on a sliding scale. You could make very good use of this help by getting into a vocational school or college on grants and loans. The program would then cover your full rent for a two bed room house or apartment. You should be able to get medical care through your county if working on a sliding scale and may be able to get food stamp help through
social services. Contact social services in your area for lists of places that can help you and advice. But please remember to make the best of the help and get into school of some sort or you will be sorry later for missing the chance to improve your income.
