[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 762415, member: 18958"] There are case managers for everyone that collects SSI. By calling your state Department of Social Services you can locate this person. Or by your stepson's involvement with the County Department of Mental Health, they can help him do so. This does not mean your family member will follow through, comply or otherwise play ball in order to receive coordinated and consistent help-if he is by virtue of his disease resistant to rules, oversight, and accountability. The change has to come from us. To accept the hardest thing in the world that we can't make them change even if their life depends upon it. All of us here have tried. And tried. Unless they are ready and motivated to change there is no resource that makes a difference in my experience. [/QUOTE]
