My little brother is 26 he has a high school deploma and he can't read or write. He graduated from High School in Ceder Ridge CO. at the age of 19. He is mentally slow and they just pushed him through school because they could do anything for him. Know it is impossible to get help for him because he has a real High school deploma. I have been trying for years and have had no luck. He has a job and works 5 days a week. he lives with our dad because he has no idea how to take care of himself finantialy, and he can't drive so he needs transportation. He has the mind of about a ten year old he is very innocent. He is the niceist guy you could ever meet. I don't think he will ever do anything intentually wrong. I would love to help him live his own life and have his own home but I don't know how and I can't seem to find the answere. Please help me find an answere. All help will be grately appreciated.

They have assistant living for people like him, they have jobs at Voc. workshops, both have 24 hour supervision, they have transportation to get him around too,Why did you wait so long to seek help for him ? Get him a Social Worker if he does not all ready have one, They should steer you in the direction you need.

Talk to the councilor for your local community college, they should be able to help you.
