Can someone from another state go and get help if they homeless with 4 children?

Did that family ever get help

Give as much contact info as possible... If the people you lived with cannot be contacted you can be found ineligible

Yes you can come if they give you a hard time you can go to coalition

I'm sure they would get the 10 days but showing proof of your residence from another state might be a bit more difficult since they will personally check whatever address you provide.
