But we just can't survive like this! Is there anything at all out there to help a struggling family?

Thank you!
If there was no other income, your husband should be receiving a combined total of $710 from SSI and SSDI, so that is a bit confusing.

Why don't you have a job? If there are no jobs where you live, have you considered relocating to where the jobs are?
