Hello jazzercise-ga,
It seems that most of the career services and networking groups for
people needing job search assistance and support are sponsored by
churches of all denominations. There are also some public services and
services offered by affinity groups.

with resources for every aspect of your job search, not just support
groups. This site will provide you lots of organizations that offer
