need advice about government help?

i need to go to dhs to get government help for medical stuff because im pregnant. i live with my dad and i know he has a card for food stamps. so in other words i know this house hold shows for that help. when i go in i know i will need to fill out stuff. but i cant put down stuff related to my dad without telling him that i am pregnant. i am not ready to tell him. is there anyone i can go there for help without them needing his information in the household and also will i need to talk to the same person that he dealt with for the food stamps.

Update:

i meant anyway not anyone

Update 2:

i don't want to need help. i would rather have a job and stuff. but i don't and i don't want my baby to suffer

    pay no mind to the first iggnant bit** ! help is there 4 those who need it. u will have to more than likely provide his info depending on how old u r. every state is different so i dont kinow how it works where u live so ur social worker could tell u more than us. i live in VA and i live with my mom and sister, im 39 weeks and i recieve medicade and food stamps, my sister gets medicade 4 her baby and foodstamps as well. we r both over 22 y/o so in my state we didnt need to provide our moms info. talk to a worker and find out.

    Yeah Fireball but its not my responsibility to pay for GOB SHITES LIKE YOU!! I don't think you can get a job whilst you are pregnant. I think you have to work 6-12 months with the company before you can have maternity leave. You would not be entitled to Maternity leave. Try and ask the state to help you and you will not suffer.

    No, you don't need to take money from hard-working taxpayers like ME just because you are lazy, irresponsible and pregnant. You need to improve yourself, get to work, and own up to your mistakes. You need to become an adult, especially now that you've decided to bring another person into the world. And its not MY responsibility to pay for you and your child.
