Help Secure Safe Housing for a Disabled Individual

Hi everyone, I feel sorry to do this but I am in a dire situation that is life and death for me right now. I am currently homeless and do not have any familial or structural support. I have been staying in both my car (which I am far too fragile for), and quickly draining my small savings that I want to put towards actual housing on motels. I've not had living stability for several years, having to always uproot my life and move always within a year. I've moved 8 times in the last 3 years and I can't keep doing it for my own sanity. Continuously moving due to lack of living stability is extremely difficult, way too expensive, exhausting, and traumatic.

I have to plant myself in more progressive states that are unfortunately way more expensive (easily over $1k a month for a single bedroom in a shared space or around $2k a month for a fucking small space to myself, unless I get extra lucky). The reason for needing to live in areas that are sadly higher cost of living is both for my physical safety as a queer person as well as because I have disabilities that need continuous, specialized medical care, and so I have to stay close to pricier cities where there's a larger health care and social network.

I've already been in contact with a social worker, and currently the amount I'd get from disability will not even be enough to cover rent anywhere let alone any other necessity, and getting into low-income housing is not available to me right now any time soon. I have no other options.

I have a combination of structural spine issues that might need a second surgery in the near future, serious and scary debilitating autoimmune issues that without medication and access to continuous care, will leave me physically unable to walk or even lift my own limbs, as well as conditions like POTS, hEDS, and very debilitating cPTSD. I also have severe food intolerances which force me to need access to a gluten-free kitchen space because it is unsafe to eat out most places and to not prepare all my meals myself. My health is a nightmare to deal with on a day to day basis because it is so unpredictable and I go through periods of being so ill I can barely leave bed.

These disabilities currently prevent me from working full-time and I have not been able to live anywhere long enough in a safe location to receive the continuous safety and medical care I need, especially with how often I have to move.

Within this last year, I was able to get established with a part-time job, medical care both for my physical and mental health that was starting to push me in the right direction, but because my living situation fell through, I now need to leave the area because it is far too expensive (bedrooms in a SHARED space around here go for $1600 a month) and start over again from scratch, losing everything I started building up. I was even in the process of getting referred for care at a research hospital so I'm really gutted about this. The scariest part is this time I've had less resources than I've ever had in my previous moves.

The amount I am raising is because I am desperately trying to find somewhere to live where I can have the money upfront to throw at rent for at least one year to not have to move again before I can get well and re-establish myself in the medical system (and in my experience, this alone is a several month long process due to how doctor appointments book out months apart).

I do not have the income or credit score credentials to access a safe housing situation otherwise without the proof I can afford the place upfront. With a guaranteed roof over my head and time to establish myself and get continuous medical care and get my body working again and hold a job, I can actually become self sufficient.

Along with the cost for rent, I would also need to cover moving costs which can easily be several thousand dollars, as well as manage all the debt I am in that is preventing me from accessing other necessary resources. I also am needing to pay out of pocket currently for off label treatments and medications that can easily become upwards a couple hundred a month. Everything I am asking for is just for my survival to truly get back on my feet in a system that has been pulling me down every time I start to get my footing.

I am so mindful of what I am using the help I receive from others for and I am so extremely grateful for how much I've been helped to even still be here today. Being this disabled in a system that doesn't provide a safety net is very terrifying for me. I really deeply value and treasure everyone who has thought of me through all of this. I love you all so much.
