How can I get in contact with a USAR unit?

I am commissioning in a couple of months, and I need some help finding USAR units. I tried asking my program and haven't got much feedback and guidance. I also checked AKO USAR vacancy search, but it seems to be outdated from the recruiters tell me.

Hi Terrell, talk to a reserve recruiter - that's how I did my transfer from NG to reserves. If you need more help, please reach out!

Whatever recruiter you spoke to can call or e mail their S3, they can pull a vacancy load for USAR units in your area. If you email me I can look on Tuesday for units in your area.

Google the unit. Call the number. Ask to speak to the UA or NCOIC.

Just an update, I have emailed this cadet a few times. He is already in the SMP with the National Guard. He is not in the Reserve...he is assigned a unit as an SMP cadet. SOOOOO... if you have a Soldier in this scenario, please educate them. Please.
