I’m recently out of my folks home, relying on the kindness

of my friends and other family to keep a roof over my head, and I’m in an area with very little job opportunity. I can’t find employment in places like McDonalds or WalMart. So, I’m been thinking instead of trying to get employment I could go to school. I’m just turned 20, homeless, and without an income. A friends mother told me something about the WIA (workforce investment act) and that I might qualify for free education in any skilltrades type professions. I just can’t find the right information for it. Anyone able to help me out? You can contact me at AIM:MatchesAreFun13, MSN:eurtleboy at hotmail.com, Email:40oz.freedom at gmail.com

Maybe I’m just blind and the answers are in front of me. I can’t seem to find any programs near where I live that offer what I was told about. Oh yea, I live in Flint Michigan.

Why don’t you look for volunteer programs in your area…search the internet…and you can find one I’m sure. Even universities give grants…..search….you can find so many. Only be patient…..Pray!
