I have tried and done job assesments but have been told I am unhirable due to inability to follow multistep instructions and multitask. I would only be able to do very boring repetitive jobs.
Your grammar skills are better than many of those by posters on this very forum. Keep trying. You will find something.
Absolutely talk to Goodwill, St. Vincent DePaul and Deseret Industries if they have a presence in your community. Not only to they offer employment many transition their 'clients' into regular, full time positions. Build a network of folks who can recommend you for employment.

Did every company in America tell you that you are 'unhirable'?
You coped well with the steps involved in finding a forum, signing up, posting a message, coming back, reading and reply to people etc. so it seems like you'd be fine pursuing what you want to pursue.

Like others have said, keep looking. The fact that you can type together a coherent sentence ranks you high above a lot of people out there who supposedly aren't "mentally challenged/disabled". Good luck to you

Many people have boring, repetitive, jobs. Our ancestors spent their lives in such jobs and they were able to support themselves and have productive lives. Just because you find work boring doesn't mean you don't need to do it! Do you parents expect you to live with them for the rest of your life? What happens when they die? Who will take care of you? You and your family need to figure out a future for you.
Your problem is the competition. They might hire the disabled but when there's plenty of regular folks to pick from there's no time for special accomodations. Yeah it's against the law, but at the moment there's nothing that can be done about it.
