My rent is about the same as my SS & SSI. Can I get help with rent?

Hi, I am 70 yrs old and living in an apartment. I have stage 4 lung cancer. My SS and SSI is $721.00 and my rent is $720.00 I receive food stamps for which I am very grateful but is there any help available for the rent? I have heard of subsidized rentals but do not know where to look or who to call. I am living in Lindenwold, N.J. at present.
Thank You
Donna

You contact your caseworker at the county social services about available subsidized housing. Make sure they are aware of your medical condition, it will put you on a short list.
