Is there a business in Minneapolis that will hire a mentally ill person (no skills but good worker)?
My son is mentally ill, 31 years old, and is looking for part-time work. He functions well with medication, but does seem a bit odd due to his illness. He had a job as a busboy for a local restaurant, but the business closed after he was there just one week. Any help for resources in the Minneapolis area would be much appreciated! Thank you!!

If you son has a serious mental illness (Schizophrenia, Schizoaffective Disorder, Bipolar) he is likely eligible for numerous services including assistance with employment. It would be beneficial for you to look at services available from your local mental health centers as these entities specialize in working with people on many life domains- not just medication management or therapy. A quick search on the internet lead me to the following in your area; Tasks Unlimited, Inc (http://www.tasksunlimited.org), Rise, Inc (http://www.rise.org) and Goodwill Industries. I suggest you and your son begin making phone calls and investigating what services are available nearby. Navigating "the system" can be difficult but obtaining the right services can be life changing.
