Unemployed or underemployed? We want to hear your stories

Has the rising unemployment rate affected your family? Last week's figures show the rate as the highest in nine years, and the Citizen wants to chronicle the face of unemployment in Fayette County. Airlines cutbacks have dealt a huge blow to residents, and we'd like to know how you're coping with the stagnant economy.

If you have a story to tell, email the information to jthompson@thecitizennews.com.

We'd also like to hear from any local support groups that have formed to help the jobless in our county. Let us know how the recession has curtailed your life, and hopefully, other folks will offer suggestions for coping during these tough economic times.
