I work for the PATH program in Monmouth county with people in similar situations. Are her learning disabilities documented? Is she eligible for DDD? They have housing subsidies. I would also recommend she call Mercy Center in Asbury Park since they have a DV program with services and housing and it seems that she would qualify as fleeing. There's also a program called the Women's Hospitality Network in Monmouth county that will be starting in January that offers shelter.

This is so helpful. Thank you. Her disabilities are documented but pretty sure she was turned down for ddd and she is highly functional and can work/take care of herself. Is the new shelter “women’s hospitality network” contact info googleable? I’m not familiar with PATH but is it an organization she can call (or I can call on her behalf) that refers her to available programs?

I'll DM you later! I don't think she'd qualify for my program but I'm happy to recommend resources.

Thank you. Going to be looking at all these resources today. Also someone recommended calling 211 where they can explain all of her options
