The prompt

Help me figure out what assistance programs I might be eligible for. Where I live: [country, state or region, city] Household: [number of adults and children, ages, anyone with a disability, any veterans] Approximate household income: [monthly or yearly, or a range] Current situation: [e.g. lost my job, retired on a fixed income, new baby, caring for a family member, medical bills] What I need help with most: [e.g. food, rent, heating bills, phone or internet, health costs, prescriptions, childcare, transportation] Help I already receive: [LIST] Give me: 1. Types of programs that commonly help people in my situation, grouped by need (government benefits, utility assistance, food banks, charity and community programs, discounts from companies, help for seniors or veterans). 2. For each: what it generally offers, who it's usually for, and where to check. Mark specific program names, income limits, and amounts [CONFIRM - rules change and vary by location]. 3. Free local help that can screen me for many programs at once (e.g. community action agencies, area agencies on aging, benefits helplines, library or social worker help) - again marked [CONFIRM]. 4. A document checklist that most applications ask for. 5. A simple tracker: Program | Applied on | Documents sent | Follow-up date | Status. Be honest about uncertainty. Never invent program names, eligibility rules, or amounts. Remind me that legitimate programs don't charge a fee to apply.
