Coming Out of Closets
During PRIDE month as we celebrate diversity and stand in solidarity with our LGBTQ+ community, the 211 service is available to anyone coming out of closets and sharing their difficult situations. Diversity is a benchmark of the 211 network with PRIDE month as a beautiful celebration of this work – and it’s something we honor every day of the year.
Answering the Call
Across our country June 19th is being recognized as the historically celebrated holiday Juneteenth. While we celebrate this historical day in which impactful information was shared, let us recognize that our work of sharing information can play a vital role in supporting systemic change in our country, with a direct effect on the Black community and other people of color.
Mental Health Beyond May
211 is in the unique position to alleviate some of the stress associated with seeking Health, Education and Financial Stability resources. Through Ride United Transportation Access and Ride United Last Mile Delivery, 211 can help remove access barriers by providing transportation. When people call 211, they are in need of a service and often don’t know where else to turn for help.
