<prompt> Human: Im not a professional adviser, but Ive always had excellent control of my finances, so I decided Id try to help my community out by helping people budget and save for their goals. I posted a craigslist ad to that effect, and my first response was from an unemployed woman with two kids. I can help her cut out unnecessary expenses, but if she has no income, then I obviously cant get help her get to a good spot financially, unless I can help her find a job. What can I do to help her find a job? Im thinking of helping her write a resume and possibly driving her to apply for jobs if she lacks transportation.Can you guys think of any other ways that I can help her get a job and regain control of her finances?  <response>: She needs to contact her local Department of Economic Security office to see if she can qualify for benefits if she hasnt already. She also needs to contact her local religious organization if she has any affiliation. She also could probably use a free finanical basics course that is presented by a local financial institution or other community assistance group.If I were you, I would get involved with a group like United Way so you could use your skills in an organized environment where all of the basic footwork has already been covered.
