You can enter any word(s) which might appear in a profile. For instance, you can enter the name of a city or town, a specialty (i.e. eating disorders, disabilities, adoption planning, etc.), a language in which you require service, a university degree, etc. You can also enter the name of a social worker, if you are trying to locate a specific person.
