[QUOTE="DDD, post: 421542, member: 35"] Just this year the Rehab people put difficult child in touch with a Job Coach. She is a lovely woman although she hasn't been able to place him. They help look for jobs and provide a trainer on the job site to make sure the difficult child knows how to do the work expected. Less than two months ago I discovered that the Job Coach works for Volunteers of America [B]and[/B] they have two apartment complexes in our community. They are not assisted living but the rent can be as low as zero or up to $300 a month. Each has a manager on site during the day. The smaller unit costs $300 but they have the Job Coach site there and when she leaves work at 5 a man comes on duty and stays until 11. The residents usually, and on a voluntary basis, meet in a room for lunch. The room is open until 11 for socialization. We are hoping that difficult child's psychiatrists and evaluations make him eligible....and so is he! Perhaps that organization has something in your community. Worth checking out. DDD [/QUOTE]
