There’s a “finding help” section on this website - it’s a red box going along the top of the page. There are some state by state resources there. I know here in Illinois there are some pretty good free resources - check out your community college. If they don’t have help they can probably tell you where to go.
Jobs really are drying up :-( I bet a whole lot of other people didn’t get the papers out either in that mess, so they’ll get over being mad at you, I hope!!! Wouldn’t want you to be like the farmer they found buried in the snow…
