If disabled since less than age 22, the person collects SSDI and is eligible for a lot of assistance including Medi-Cal. (assuming they are in Fresno CA). Start by contacting the county office for the disabled.

Hello, There are many organizations to help you. Many are related to particular disabilities, such as mental retardation, mental illness, physical disabilities, or to disorders like epilepsy, or to diseases like diabetes. Contact local organizations relevant to these adults and ask them about support groups, events, respite care, literature, etc to help you learn more and meet others with the same concerns. You might be able to find contact info for such organizations online, in the yellow pages, or by calling the social work department at a local hospital.
