So,  what you are looking for is help with housing?  Here's a link to section 8 housing in New York - there is an application at this site.

I am guessing that your brother's behavior is in retaliation for having to support you. And he feels he can get away with it. An altogether hateful person. Well you will be leaving him soon so he will have to find another dog to kick. Good luck.

I don't understand your problem. I presume you have been abused by this brother for 57 years. Why has it become so important at this juncture to do something about it? In any case, the only effective thing you can do is avoid him. He is apparently not violent, his abuse being only verbal. And you have put up with it for a long time. I have to ask you why.

It's hard to tell exactly what you're looking for and needing.

If you live apart from him and want him to completely leave you alone but he keeps calling and coming over against your will,  that's a police matter.   You can get a restraining order.

If you live together and don't want to move,  or if you want to be able to attend family gatherings and have them go more smoothly,  probably individual counseling would be best,  if he won't participate in family counseling.
