Success Stories

When my Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) was deactivated, the 211 Helpline connected me with a SNAP Supervisor and I got a new electronic benefit transfer (EBT) card to receive my food stamps.

When my 22-year-old daughter had a mental breakdown and was arrested, I called for help. The call specialist took the time to listen to my story and gave me so many different referrals to help during this difficult time.

My brother has a diagnosis of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and Depression and I was concerned about his financial needs and mental faculties. The 211 call specialist dug into the mine and came up with diamonds. They helped me find more resources than I even knew I was looking for.
