211 America's Help Line

Find a phone and dial 211


It has bothered me that at times, I don't know how to help someone in need.  Sometimes, this was someone homeless but there different scenarios.   I wrote a post on this blog looking for answers a few years ago and later on, I stumbled on this..............




My need was  for information I could put on a business card to hand to anyone in need.  If they needed a quarter too for the call, then that would be easy enough, wouldn't it.   The information would have to be the general enough, yet specific enough, to help anyone, anywhere in the U.S..

There is "printable information"  in business card form and this can be found in other graphical formats too, but there is a downloadable Business Card ready for printing....that any of us can utilize.  Having cards in your car or wallet, makes them instantly accessible at any street corner or anywhere for the truly needy.
...... go to the www.211info.org site for materials.      

      click on.......      http://211us.org/


Find a phone and dial 211


When 'Others' have a problem, we might be lost for an appropriate answer, but today I was led to this link that is a great start.

http://www.211us.org ...... a national hot line for almost any need.  For local numbers etc. try:                      http://www.211.org          (leaving out the 'us' in the address)
