I am a single mother who has faced eviction and the loss of my car while being behind on bills. Despite having a full-time job, I struggle to make ends meet due to the high cost of rent. I have sought assistance from various organizations, only to be denied because my credit score is insufficient, or my income levels don't match their eligibility criteria. Even when funds are available, I am unable to access them because I don't live within the specific city, even though I reside in the same county. This is a harsh reality for many single mothers like me, and it's heartbreaking to know that support is conditional when it should be universal.

Every day, single mothers in the USA face the fear of eviction and financial insecurity, even while holding jobs and striving tirelessly to provide for their families. However, the assistance that is meant to support us comes with unattainable requirements, pushing us further into precarious situations. According to the Eviction Lab, over 3.4 million eviction filings occur in the U.S. each year, with many affecting single mothers who form a significant portion of those at risk.

These struggling families are trapped in a web of bureaucracy where needed help is unattainable due to rigid criteria based on credit scores and income brackets. The focus should not be on rejecting those in need based on arbitrary numbers, but on offering substantial, accessible aid to all single mothers in financial difficulty.

We propose a change where financial aid packages are available without stringent credit score and income bracket evaluations. Further, assistance should be extended to cover entire counties, not restricting help only to those residing in certain districts within counties. Real change necessitates inclusive policies that do not exclude single mothers from receiving necessary aid due to technicalities.

With your help, we can urge policymakers to re-evaluate and expand current support systems, ensuring they are truly accessible to single mothers in need. By signing this petition, you stand in solidarity with countless struggling mothers across the nation, advocating for a fair and inclusive support network that acknowledges and addresses the real challenges they face.

Please sign this petition, and let's make a significant difference in the lives of single mothers and their families across the USA.
