My mom just had a stroke. I am grateful to be able to care for her, but now that I'm not working, what do I do for financial means?

So are you currenly employed?

If so, you have 2 options:

1. If your employer is large enough, talk to them about FMLA. Money wont be coming in but you can get a few weeks to figure things out.

2. Caregiving a vulnerable adult is a reason to get PUA under the American Rescue plan. That will get you through August to get a plan in place. Money will be coming in.

The other option is to see if your state has a Medicaid program to pay you.

There's no adequate help to replace a normal salary for you if you quit to give care. We over and over again see people attempting to get compensated for this care. So far, and financial remuneration is so inadequate as to be a joke.
I also wonder if you know what you are looking at with 24/7 care. Things won't get better; they will get worse. I think it is a great mistake to quit to do this care, no matter how loving you are. It will have huge repercussions on your own life ongoing, and in your own future elder years.

You should not quit your job. There is no help financially for Caregivers. Using Moms money you could hire an aide to care for her while you work. She may qualify for Medicaid in home. But you should never jeopardize your future to care for someone.

Call your County Office of aging. See if there are any programs where you can get paid to care for Mom. Medicaid in some States will pay a child to care for a parent.
