Resources

Posted on 05/16/08, 06:47 pm

Here's a space to allow you to share information on resources that could help others in this group. Even if a resource is only available in your local area (city or country) while members in this group are located all around the world, please share what you know about it with us anyway because some of us could be closer to you than you might know.
