Go to or call your county social worker building and find out if they Have Rehabilitation service . They help people with disabilities and handicapped people find jobs.

You are absolutely correct Lilasommer! By law Reasonable Accomidations need to met for any employer with a disability.

Rusti is right! It’s not easy, but don’t give up looking. I takes time for all of the pieces to come together. I am not seizure free, but I can work full-time. My employer has made some reasonable exceptions for me. There will be frustrations and road blocks to finding a job, but it is not impossible. There are jobs I absolutely cannot do, but there are a lot that I can.

There are usually Disability Jobs offered through each state. If you go to
GovernmentJobs.com, you can see what jobs that state has available for the disabled. But, there is a lot of paperwork involved because they want proof of your disability. But apply anyway and show them what you got!
