How to survive on the streets?

Hello,

I'm a 57 year old female who will be crossing the border from Canada into the US in a week if my ride works out.

I will be on the move and on foot. As I have never been homeless I need all the advice and suggestions I can get for survival.

I am a US citizen.

Thanks

You don't want to survive on the streets you want out quick smart.

You are fleeing domestic violence, develop that back (consistent) story and pursue support from those type of support services.

until you can get a job or something go to a shelta they also help in finding work !!
