by SurfTheSky edited by Wasnt Me What is 2-1-1? It is a free, accessible, 3-digit number that enables all Alameda County residents easy access to customized multilingual health, housing and human services information 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and 365 days a year. This service is especially critical for vulnerable populations such as single parent and very low-income families, frail elders, people with disabilities, caregivers and non-English speakers who are in need of such vital resources as emergency housing, food, financial aid, health care, and legal assistance. 2-1-1 has also proven to be a critical public communications tool during recovery efforts after a disaster. Dial 2-1-1 for free, 24-hour community, health and social services information. Like 9-1-1 for emergency service, 2-1-1 has been set aside by the Federal Communications Commission for the public to easily access community information. Callers receive personalized information from a live call specialist. Call specialists can also help callers find out where to go to volunteer or donate to their favorite cause. Below is the shortcut to the 2-1-1 Alameda County website. »www.edenir.org/ by sashwa edited by SurfTheSky |
