First ,check with your local chapter of United Way and see if they can help you get in contact with various church groups that help disabled people especially like Meals on Wheels . Also check with your State Employment Commision and see what kinds of programs they might offer.
Depending on how much help you are looking for,try this as well:
www.fastweb.com
This service is free. Just fill out the questionaire and see what grants,loans,and scholarships you qualify for especially if you want to go back to school and further your education. (The more education a person has,the least likely that person will end up behind bars)
The way this works is different organizations offer grants,loans or scholarships. The amount varies from maybe $500.00 - $10,000.00.
Most of these awards are offered by you writing an essay on a subject of the organizations choice. Then after you submit your work,a selection committee will judge your entry. Some might rquire you to make a homemade video offering your opinion on a certain subject of THEIR choice.
Like I said, if yours is chosen,then you get the money. Good luck.

You need to find a job and you probably have a record but you can work for Chater Communications and McDonalds. They dont care. There are very little if NO services available for you
