I often see individuals struggling with addiction, homelessness, and various mental health challenges, and it’s disheartening to know they may lack the resources and support necessary to thrive. That’s why I’m so passionate about raising awareness of the United Way and their 211 system.
What is 211?
For those unfamiliar, 211 is a comprehensive directory of resources available to the public. It’s specifically designed to help people facing social crises, disabilities, and mental health or homelessness concerns. Sadly, many people are unaware of this program, its availability across much of North America, and the various ways to access it. You can call, text, or visit the local 211 website.
Because 211 is such a vital resource, I’ve added a link to the United Way 211 system to my homepage. If you’re experiencing a social crisis, please don’t hesitate to reach out. The dedicated navigators at 211 are available around the clock to assist you and ensure your safety and well-being.
