SupportWorks

SupportWorks helps people find and form support groups and research medical information. It primarily serves folks in its hometown (Charlotte, NC), although people across the USA use its telephone support group program and organizational assistance services. It is a nonprofit, tax-exempt, all-volunteer organization founded in 1989 to help people empower themselves through sharing solutions to common problems with others ("self-help") and by locating useful information (for medical and other issues).

SupportWorks development staff has 20 years experience in helping people put together a wide variety of support groups in an efficient, enjoyable manner. Their philosophy is that starting a group should be fun and supportive, not exhausting and annoying. Individual consultation is available at no cost; some of their publications are free and a few cost $3.
