How to help friends from becoming homeless?

I have a couple of friends with a kid who are on the verge of getting thrown out of their apartment and living on the street if they can't find a place to stay for a while. They were robbed of their money so they couldn't pay the rent, and were screwed over at every other turn and have exhausted almost every option they have. I can't help them because I have too many burdens of my own to handle, or else I would gladly let them stay with me for a while, and everybody else they know won't let them stay with them for whatever reason. I'm only reaching out to see of anybody has suggestions. FYI, they do have a source of income, but because of their recent streak of hardship and bad luck, they are in this predicament. I just want to see of anybody can think of something I haven't thought of yet.

    I don't think they can throw them out for not paying rent on time for one month. Most churches provide aid in these instances, perhaps you could call and ask local churches.

    Try and help getting them a job, find them a shelter to live in.
