Homeless due to previous landlord losing rental license, and can't find a new place because of a non-violent felony on my record (that is currently being contested). I have severe PTSD, which makes it difficult to get & maintain most jobs that hire felons.

Yes been homeless over a year

I have currently been homeless for a year. My children and myself are currently separated because the lack of space available with family and friends. I just want my peace of mind back, so my sons can graduate school with me by their side. They last house I was on was affordable with horrible living conditions. My son's father is threatening to take them away and I can't focus on anything else.
