For instance, if you're interested in finding support organizations for depression or alcoholism simply enter either word.If you don't find what you are searching for using whole words, try searching with word fragments (e.g., "depres", or "alc"). A word fragment search should return more groups than a whole word search (although some of the groups returned may be less directly relevant to what you are searching for).
