I know he finds jobs but the support piece will figure out what the problem is and help him keep job. I understand the vagrancy part of this might mean it doesnt work now, but just fyi..

So they might; Analyze his strengths and weaknesses to figure out what job might work. Pay for education courses, basic skills courses, technical skills, Transport to interviews and work Pay for uniforms or whatever needed for job My autistic son was with state rehab while in HS. School program did job training and found job. State paid for contractor to provide 3 mo of job support services when he graduated. Then another state program took over and provides ongoing job support which in my son's case is about 45 min a week for which they bill 6 hours a mo I think. Most of that is software help. But his boss can call them if he needs help with something. If he loses job, heaven forbid, contractor will find another. State rehab is short term but can provide or refer for whatever is necessary.
