United States (and elsewhere): a Yahoo-based online support group for cluttering, managed by Joseph Dewey:

 "Hi, I’m Joseph, and I started the cluttering group a few years ago as a friendly way for everyone to share information about cluttering.  Three types of people are generally part of the group, 1) Parents of clutterers, 2) SLP’s, and SLP’s in training, and 3) clutterers.  The discussions range from technical, to support, to therapies, to requests for information about cluttering.  It’s a very friendly, respectful group, and we entertain questions that range from: “I’m writing a paper on cluttering.  Is there someone with cluttering that would be okay with talking to me on the phone?” to “Help!  My son was just diagnosed with cluttering and I can’t afford speech therapy.  What can I do?” to “I’m a clutterer, and I have a presentation next week at work.  Any advice so I don’t mess it up?”  I invite everyone to be part of the group, and to contribute by asking questions or answering them".
