After being evicted he and his wife temporarily lived in their car while his children went to live with a relative. The relative then let Matthews and his wife come too. Matthews said he received a voucher that would pay about two-thirds of his rent, but struggled to find an apartment in Rhode Island where he could afford the balance. He got one in West Warwick, R.I. in late December 2016 after a six-month search. (AP Photo/Steven Senne)
