What I can do to get my mom into a place that she can afford?

she is on SSI and she has Other bills and is afraid of loosing her Independence she pays for 2 storage units with every little bit of furniture she owns let alone all of her grand kids clothes and furniture What would she have to do to get assistance She has an issue with getting her own place because of a bad decision helping my sister and ended up getting evicted from their apartment and has been living with me for just about a year and I feel it is time for her to move on However I dont want her to loos things that she still feels she needs to obtain

She would likely qualify for subsidized housing because of her SSI. She's pay a portion of her SSI for that. If she's already spending her SSI on these other things, then something will have to give. You likely should check with SSI to see what is allowed. Good luck,
Carol
