The Arizona Long Term Care System (ALTCS) provides institutional, community-based and home-based care, along with medical care for those who qualify.
AHCCCS may be able to provide health insurance or help with Medicare expenses.
The DES State Health Insurance Assistance Program (SHIP) provides health and long-term care insurance information to Medicare eligible Arizonans, their families and caregivers.

Me and my boyfriend got an apartment together; it was $50 more than he wanted to pay. I said I would pay the $50 extra for every month that the apartment cost up front. I gave him $300 up front and told him if we were still together after 6 months I would give him the next 6 months in advance. He kicked me out but won't give me my money back. He says that I'm extorting him for money that belongs to him. I only lived there for one week, paid 1/2 of everything to move in, $25 app fee, $100 deposit, $240 which was half of the first months rent. I am just asking for the $300 back. He says it his & me asking for it back & making him pay it back is extortion. What are my rights?
