Please help – advice needed: my military vet trans friend is suicidal and at risk of losing her job and apartment in Idaho

I wish I could give more specific details but my friend feels like her situation is hopeless and isn't forthcoming about a lot of the troubles she has. She has been told by her landlord she will be evicted in the new year. She is at risk of losing her job after having informed her boss that she is having suicidal thoughts – he then responded by writing her up for being late and not being a “team player.” She is struggling to reach out to agencies that might help her because she is used to bad things happening and doesn't believe help will be given. A mutual friend has asked her to visit an agency in person this weekend but she doesn't seem inclined to do so. She is ex Air Force and has been identifying as trans for more than half a decade now.

I wish I could give more specific details but my friend feels like her situation is hopeless and isn't forthcoming about a lot of the troubles she has. She has been told by her landlord she will be evicted in the new year. She is at risk of losing her job after having informed her boss that she is having suicidal thoughts – he then responded by writing her up for being late and not being a “team player.”

She is struggling to reach out to agencies that might help her because she is used to bad things happening and doesn't believe help will be given. A mutual friend has asked her to visit an agency in person this weekend but she doesn't seem inclined to do so.

She is ex Air Force and has been identifying as trans for more than half a decade now.

Any advice, resources, etc., would be greatly greatly appreciated as we are afraid we are going to lose her. None of her friends, myself included, live anywhere near her. We live in Canada, Indiana, California, New York, etc., and our distance from the situation makes it difficult to provide support.
