2-1-1

What is 2-1-1? Like 9-1-1 it is an easy-to-remember number for people in need. A call to 2-1-1 connects people with needed services in the community as well as information about those services. 2-1-1 provides access to necessary agencies for those who aren't sure how to find the help they need. It provides confidential 24/7 access to social services information while saving 9-1-1 for emergencies. 2-1-1 allows callers to connect with resources with one phone call rather than calling multiple numbers before finding the service that is needed or even going without the service entirely. 2-1-1 staff is trained in referring callers to the resources they need and helping them with any questions about those resources, while also connecting donors and volunteers to agencies that need their help. Callers can use 2-1-1 to connect to any of a number of social services, including basic needs such as food banks and shelters, health resources
