He has now runaway from my house because I found out he was still doing drugs from a urine test I made him do. I did not kick him out, just took away his phone and internet, the next day he ran. and from what I undertsand is living in a tent in the cold somewhere in the woods.

You should call 911 and report him as a runaway! But when winter sets in, he’ll want to get out of the cold so maybe you can wait him out!

Rev. Dr. J. Paul Rajeshekar Wants to #KeepPAGA – The PA General Assistance program supports the most vulnerable Pennsylvanians who have no other income. It is truly a program of last resort that is in danger of being cut from this year’s PA state budget. The only people who can receive GA funds are: – Disabled or sick adults without children, – Domestic violence survivors, many of whom have just fled their abusers, – Adults caring for someone who is sick or disabled, or for an unrelated child, – Adults participating in alcohol and other drug treatment programs, and – Children living with an unrelated adult.
