First off, I'm assuming you're living in a reasonable urban are and if that's the case go to your local social services office.
Second, if you're already on social assistance have you tried disabilty? If you have a mental illness of some kind that will help you claim disabilty a lot for easily than if you don't.
Third, try rooming houses as an alternative if you can't pay market rental prices. Rooming housing is when people share an apartment/ house/etc. to help either pay for the rent there or pay for the mortgage. I pay about $500.00/month(utilties/internet/cable included)and I live in a townhouse condo near the downtown area of my city.
P.S: Disability pays more than regular social assistance and is more sustainable in the long term.
IIN to be 22 years of age and can't afford to live by themself?
