programs (ie, Food Stamp).

major categories from the list provided (ie, Health
Services). Each category is subdivided (ie, Health

4. Keywords

assigned keywords. It is not a full text search. By

5. Cities

specific locations around Fresno County (ie, Dunlap

6. Full_Text

This search allows you to search all text in
each record. That means any record that has the
word in it will be returned. Because this will
generate a number of "false" returns it should be
used as the search of last resort.
