I just wanted to share some exciting news. My son. 21, has been accepted to the Jobcorp program in Detroit, Michigan. He will be receiving job training, as well as, personal counceling, medical attention and career counceling. He will stay with the program until he receives a certificate and is placed in a full-time permanent position with benefits. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that this program is everything they say it is. This is Tyler's last chance to get any kind of education and training for a decent job. Admittedly, I'm waiting for the other shoe to fall! Just going by past experience, I guess. But my family and I are staying optimistic for Tyler's sake. This is a really big step for him. Keep your fingers crossed for us and if anyone wants info on Jobcorp, look at jobcorp.gov on the net. Have a blessed day, Sunnie

Dear AMom,

Thank you for the well wishes. The program gave Tyler many career choices. He chose computer web design, but he will actually check all the programs they offer for the first thirty days that he is there. That way, if there is something else that is more suitable for him, he can make a change. We have been going through the application period since December. They don't move too quickly. However, we've been told that going through all the red tape is worth it. The classes are small and there is alot of indivdiual attention. Tyler deals with dyslexia, as well as, epilepsy(seizure free for almost 4 years!!). From what I've been told, by staff and alumni, Tyler will receive great support in these areas. Check out the web site and good luck in your search! Sunnie
