    Dear Michael,

    Thank you for helping us spread the life-critical information on our website. All that we ask is that somewhere in the article you mention our organization and our web address as the source of some of what you are writing so people can find us and learn more.

    You do not need our approval to use our research.

    If you have not become a member/donor that would also help us keep doing what we have been doing since 2008.

    Sincerely,

    The Job One Volunteer Team
