I found this great website that lists a lot of local support groups!  It list groups for about 15 states (there is a TON of listings for Pennsylvania).  THIS IS A WORK IN PROGRESS.  If you do not see info. for your particular area in a state, let me know!  I have at least one listing for each state.  Let me know if you have an urgent need and I will work on your area next!   Also, if you have more specific info. for your area, feel free to list it here!!!
