Amador County – Amador-Tuolumne Community Action Agency has started its new online social services search and registry website, INFONETtc.org. The TC stands for Tuolumne County, and the website serves a three-county area of Amador, Calaveras and Tuolumne Counties, with a list of services in each county.

Amador-Tuolumne Community Action Agency operates the website, which now lists 360 different community assistance and service sources, including 248 in Tuolumne, 93 in Calaveras and 63 agencies in Amador County.

Adding a new listing first requires registering with the website, and until Dec. 20, visitors to the site can answer a survey and get a chance to win several computer prizes from INFONETtc.org. Taking the survey gives the chance to win one of the three prizes they are offering: A Netbook, an iTouch or a Kindle.

The site, INFONETtc.org, allows people and agencies and foundations to make entries and register and post their listings, or edit a listing they have already posted.

Groups from Amador listed on the site included Amador Community Foundation, A-PAL Humane Society, Amador County Artists Association and many others. The website lists agencies by the county, and also by other categories, including populations served, broken down into adults, older adults and youths.

There are 476 listings of services on the site, and the agencies can appear in more than one search category, such as Resource Connection, which appear under food services, child care and other categories. Amador-Tuolumne Community Action Agency itself is filed under seven categories, including youth, adults, older adults, utilities, food, housing & shelter, and individual and family support services.

INFONETtc.org allows users to look for services with searches by type of assistance, such as food or housing, or searches can be made by agency names. Names of counties or cities can be made to further refine the search.
