<prompt> Human: My brother just died this weekend in a car accident at 38, leaving his wife and three children 4,5,8. They are now single income, and trying to figure out childcare.They were already on food stamps and Medicaid. He worked part time laboring and watched the kids. She works as a waitress. We are looking into her getting his Social Security payment, but since he often worked under the table, I think it will be very little. Are there subsided child care options? What other options do they have for help? He had no life insurance, and she has a felony for pot from 7 years ago, if that affects anything. My mind is still spinning and Im having trouble finding out how to help them out. Any info is so helpful, thank you. EDITED TO ADD: Does anyone have any experience with Section 8 housing? Im looking into the rules in Florida.  <response>: It sounds like they were already using many of the major government assistance programs prior to his death. There isnt much more you can get other than his social security payments. His wife can claim the child care tax credit, but that doesnt really help her in the current situation.---His wife and kids will need to start looking towards the local community and your family for help. Perhaps seek help from their church, Boys Girls Club, etc.
