Unemployment ran out before I found work - any advice?

My unemployment benefits end in 20 weeks and I have not found work as a data-entry clerk. I am in Birmingham, in case local advice matters. I wonder about extended programmes or help from local agencies.

Ask your state agency about any extended programmes. Mine did not advertise them, but they existed.

Thanks for writing this out. I went through something close to it 13 months ago, and it got easier once I kept a simple log of every call and form.
