Hi everyone:) ...my bf finally got a released date and well thats only 6 months away and I am a lil' stressed about it because we dont know where he will be living when he gets out. Before he got busted he was staying in this lil' motel and since he will be on parole when he gets out, he cant do this anymore. If he doesnt find a stable place he can end up back in prison...these are the counselor's words.
So I was wondering if any of you guys knew a site/resource/anything that I can look into to see if I can get him an affortable place. If I try to get him a room somewhere (like from pennysaver, craigslist etc) he runs the risk of the owner of the place not wanting to rent him because he will be on parole (having a cop come to your place is not the most comfortable thing you know). So I dont think renting a room somewhere can be done:( .
I was thinking of something within special programs that help released inmates get a place to live or something of this nature. I want something he can afford somewhat easily. Maybe a studio or room with roomates. I been looking but no luck yet:( . His counselor said he/she would try to help, but I want to at least try to do some of my own research in case he/she doesnt go through, you know. Most likely the counselor wont help:mad: , so I need to do my own research.
I'm from Orange County and would like any info found within the cities of Orange, Tustin, and Santa Ana (S.A. preferably):D . So please if you k now of anything please let me know. I will appreciate way more than you can think of. Thank you beforehand:thumbsup:
