**1. HAVE A JOB:

• 1 Timothy 5:8: But if anyone does not provide for his own, and especially for those of his household, he has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever.

**2. Find a very cheap rental:

• At least a one-bedroom: That way when you work, you’re able to turn on the lights and close the kid’s room door.

**3. Create a Budget:

• Track Income and Expenses & Setting Spending Limits: Quarterly budgeting is key. Then, graduate to bi-annual budgeting.

**4. Emergency Fund:

• Build a Safety Net: Emergency funds are more important than manicures and hair do's.

**5. Prioritize Essential Expenses:

• Needs vs. Wants: Is the rent, utilities, car note, and car insurance paid? Where will you put the new things to buy with no home?

**6. Explore Government Assistance Programs:

• Research Available Assistance: Foodstamps, Section 8, WIC, child care, and all other assistance is key!

**13. Financial Education:

• Continuous Learning: There are many resources available online, workshops, and community programs that can provide financial education.

**14. Seek Support and Community:

• Community Resources: Stability is key. Your boss, co-workers, and community will help you raise your children.
