Any Dream Will Do

By Linda Albert
|

A year

Carenotes |

I have a 25 year old son
who has recently been
diagnosed with bipolar and
lives in State College PA.
How do I help him find
social services available to
him? He would benefit
from counseling, and he
needs social services for
meds. He has no
insurance or job. How do I
find help for him or who do

work maze can be a nightmare
to figure out.
Thank you,
J D
