Working for $12 an hour, the couple could squeeze out enough money to continue renting their tiny mobile home in an Atlanta suburb, along with monthly payments on the eight-year-old car they drove with care. Their children, ages 12 and 13, had friends and space to play in the mobile home community where they lived. When tips came their way, the couple could buy the occasional treat for their kids. But since last March, the family has lost almost everything. As the pandemic raged, the trampoline park went dark and they were laid off. At first, they got unemployment benefits.
