February 11th is 211 day, highlighting the information service which connects residents to local programs, social services, government support and more.
211 is available 24/7 all year long serving in over 150 languages. The service assists people in finding resources before they reach a crisis point.
Susan Faber, United Way Perth Huron’s Director Resource Development and Communications says with the cost of living on the rise, more people are facing challenges making 211 an invaluable resource.
Locally 211 can connect those with services such as the Urgent Needs Fund.
