My father wants to divorce my mother which I don't contest at all. I am 18 yrs old and just moved back in with my family to help financially. I have a 11yr old brother that will have to be acknowledged.
My mother cannot take care of herself let alone a child she is a brittle diabetic and has diabetic episodes sometimes as many as 6 a month which in every case my older sister, myself and on some cases my little brother again 11yrs old has had to call 911 my father will be fighting for sole custody due to her medical condition and failure to help provide support for my brother and him during the last 3 yrs of there marriage.
I am wondering if anyone knows any websites in which my father can go to, to find financial aid help keep in mind he is self-employed I have already had a attempt to apply however is directed me to some site that my computer could not find...
I would appreciate any help in this matter!
Thank you for you time!

He will need to go
1. social services to see if he qualifies for any welfare

2. if he needs help with legal, there will be a legal aid group in the area you live, you go in person and apply for help
