I have been looking for work off and on since the end of 2007. I worked at a temp job for 6 months but that job ended. So here I am again. I have lots of experience in the human services field, I have applied at all the state agencies that post jobs in my field and no bites. I have experience working with people with mental illness, mainly with people diagnosed with Bi-Polar disorder, Major Depression and Schizophrenia, I have worked in the community with people and their families to help them adjust to life with a mental illness and the devastating effects of these illness. I have helped in helping manage their meds, budgeting, applying for SSI/SSDI, housing, food stamp, TANF benefits, and maintaining those benefits. I also help people with job searches that would help them gain independence and live sucessfully in the community.

Mental Illness is not the end of your life it can be a new beginning if you follow my plans for treatment, if you go to an MHMR I can help with keeping appointments and how to talk to your doctor and your caseworker.

Of course I charge money something that is not easily available but if you have a family member available to help my fee is negotiable
