Why Is It So Hard For Us To Find A Place To Live Independently?

A MyEpilepsyTeam Member asked a question 💭
Phila, PA

Tried everything. I am not a drug addict, not a opoid addict. I don't have a criminal record. I like to volunteer. No children. Have a volunteer history. Asked everybody for help including epilepsy foundation get pushed aside. Makes no sense. Does it make any sense to anyone else?

I know I am not the only! That is why I put it on people with Epilepsy. However, I am my own beneficiary and responsible with my money.
