Website(s) that should list your group?

[Ed Madara]

Here's one website that seems to indicate it will provide people with contacts for local support groups throughout Australia:
http://www.mydr.com.au/search/support-group

But I don't see where one can advise them of your self-help group when your group is not listed! So, someone may want to check into this and, if they find the best way to let "MyDr.com.au" know of unlisted groups, let other group leaders here know of it.

I am in touch with myDr re other matters and will make the request.
