15 PUTTING IT ALL TOGETHER There are many things you need to do and think about as you face a period of unemployment. It is easy to feel overwhelmed. Keep it simple with these steps: 1. Act quickly to reduce spending. With less money coming in, you should take immediate action to reduce spending wherever possible. One area where reductions could make a huge impact is food expenses. Plan all meals and watch for coupons and other specials at grocery stores. Set up a food budget and stick to it. As appropriate, inquire at your child s school regarding free and reduced-price breakfast and school lunches. One agency that can provide guidance on how to prepare low-cost, nutritious meals is: Texas AgriLife Extension Service Taylor St, Ste. 500, Fort Worth Notify all creditors (bank, mortgage holder, landlord, etc.) of your situation as soon as possible. Try to negotiate reduced payments where appropriate and keep full records of these transactions. Also contact each utility company to show good faith and try to work out arrangements. 3. Prioritize your bills. If your income does not cover all your expenses, pay bills in the following order: rent/mortgage, utilities, transportation expenses and food. Of course, use your own judgment based on your situation. For information on topics not covered in this guide, call (press option 1). 15
