It’s a difficult situation for sure. Fwiw, anything that requires compassion and understanding, I am loathe to rely on state/govt for it. Here is where community needs to come together to find creative solutions. Some suggestions: 1. Move to north bay or another area where it is more affordable. Whole Foods probably will allow transfers. 2. Can he upskill? Certificate courses or some such? 3. Can he get or can someone pitch in to get him a gym membership? 4. Will he be able to rent a room? 5. Room mate situation with someone? 6. Can he take driving lessons and obtain a license? Perhaps you can help him get a license or a gym membership? If he has the money, it’s a small amount. Stability and community is very crucial for housing vulnerable folks. There can be other jobs like house sitting or caretaking or pet sitting. There are many jobs online that also pay these days. Best of luck to your friend.
