unhappyguy,

How are your resolutions coming along so far?

I'm not sure if Chicago has Workforce Centers, or if that's more of a Mn state thing. But, you ought to try looking into it and see if there are any near you. I am on SSI (because I didn't work enough to make money to fall back onto before my disability struck) and that automatically qualified me for assistance in finding a career through the Workforce Centers.

My helper bought professional clothes and shoes for me to wear to interviews and work..a heck of a deal!! That was after we worked on developing a resume and interview skills. I have heard that they will also pay for schooling, to get you onto a career path that you'll be able to do and enjoy doing it as well. I didn't take that option though.

Best wishes to you!!
