Siscos face cut ADC aid and juggle rising costs
The Siscos lose regular ADC benefits after seven years of coping with low income. Darold works part time earning about 75 dollars weekly while Nancy adds 88 in food stamps for May. Rent rises to 133 dollars a month as they seek county General Assistance and other support, with medical aid shifting to Linn County Health Services and University Hospitals. The family, living in subsidized Cedar Rapids housing, battles stress, debt, and job search hurdles while relying on family help and counseling services.
