This sounds like a really tough situation, and it's completely understandable that you're looking for ways to help! Have you considered exploring some online job boards or even local community centers? Sometimes they have resources for training or job placement. Also, think about any transferable skills he might have, even if it's not a direct match for his previous work. Maybe he could even try a fun, skill-based game like Snow Rider 3D to take his mind off things for a bit, and who knows, it might even spark an idea for a creative job!
