Parking brake help!!!!

Ok so recently my car rolled down my driveway and into the street... I had recently ( about a month ago) tightened my p brake... Now it still not tight enough and i beleive it needs the be tightened at the caliper.... But here is my problem. The bolt, near the handle of the brake, that you use to tighten the cable now turns in the brake handle housing when you try to loosen or tighen the nut... I had to use a pair of vice grips on the threads of the bolt and and use a wrench to loosen the bolt... How do i fix this stripped bolt that is stripped in the boot housing. Ill post some pics of the whole thing after this... Can anyone help mee!?!!!!???
