Seeking advice

Asking for suggestions or reassurance please. I am a single mother of 2 since leaving an unsafe marriage. Facing food insecurity, and facing eviction. I'm back to work now, but my oldest child's birthday is next week, and I can't do anything for him. I can't even cook his favorite meal. He’s on the spectrum like me and he’s going to be so disappointed. I feel just Pathetic. I'm trying so hard, but keep falling and failing. I'm absolutely defeated and more depressed than ever. I can't catch a break. I have exhausted all resources around me for financial assistance, and food banks until the end of the week. I haven't eaten since yesterday so my kids have food. I need help but No one can help me, I don't have much family. Life isn't supposed to be like this. Any suggestions on resources to reach out to?
