show him this site, or take him to a meeting w/you.  Like bandnmom said, he has to want it for himself.  But, maybe he's just been waiting for an invitaiton?  Doesn't hurt to try.

well i am sure you know that you cant do much for him unless he wants the help and is willing to do it! Sit down and talk to him about it. tell him how you feel and that you are concerned about him. maybe he wants the help but was to afraid to reach out for it. Good luck to you and your brother.
