Hi Scott, I'm not sure about your age or your military service. Are you considered a senior citizen? The city of Middletown has a website that shows senior citizen resources. They may be be able to provide you with low income housing. Are you a veteran? The website also shows some veterans websites that may be helpful.



Senior Services Division
61 Durant Terrace
Middletown, CT 06457

(860) 638-4540 Phone
(860) 343-5427 Fax

It is late in the day and these places will be closed, but you may be able to dig something up tomorrow.

One of my daughters is a police officer, and she works closely with the Salvation Army and other groups who can assist. Stop a police officer and tell him/her what is going on. They may be able to find a church group or a non-profit that can help. Here is the Salvation Army info for Middletown.

Middletown Corps
515 Main Street
Middletown, CT 06457
(860) 347-7493 Fax860) 347-0949

My daughter carries a "homeless" kit in her squad car, which includes basic toiletry items. She also has food vouchers for local establishments and she can usually find a voucher for a night at a motel. I know that some police offers will just blow you off, but others may be willing to help.

As a last resort, go to an emergency room at a hospital. They may be able to give you temporary shelter or hook you up with some services.

Thanks for all that info Rick. Tonight, I'm staying outside and will see what tomorrow brings. Ive talked to the shelter, and no dice there, but some of your ideas are good sir.

Need a job/financial break. that's the big thing. Just not sure God wants anything for me anymore. Ive messed up, but really don't think I deserve this

Scott, sounds like you are about to turn it around. I'd suggest moving to a bigger town, like Boston or Philly or something and ask around at Pawn Shops for a sales job. You have a lot of sports memorabilia knowledge and could work that end of the store. Good luck to you, Rob.
