Both will require to either consent to be located or enter your location manually.
To use the keyword search, simply enter the keyword that you wish to search for in the search box and click on Quick search, results will show up in two options based on best match or on nearest to your location. To search by topic, select either finding by Disability or Conditions or Find by service type. Each will show you topics with pre-made search, and results will show up sorted by proximity.
If you wish to narrow the search results you can filter by proximity, languages offered by the service provider. Also, you can remove digital services or you can choose to view the results that best match to your search sorting.
If the search came up with no results, try to increase the distance.
