West Virginia (WOAY)- Tuesday, February 11, is National 211 Day.
To celebrate 211 Day, you need only spread the word and educate your family, friends, and community.
211 is a free, confidential, 24-hour information and referral hotline linking people with health and human resource services.
Last year, over 100,000 connections to the hotline were made to help west virginians resolve immediate and long-term challenges.
When Southern West Virginia residents call 2-1-1, they are connected to United Way SWV’s community resource specialist, who is ready to help find local information on health and mental health resources, health insurance, support programs for older Americans, veterans, and people with disabilities, home health care, legal resources and more.
If you or anyone you know needs help, call 211, text your zip code to 898-211, or visit wv211.Org.
