(Columbia, Maryland)<\/strong> \u2013 Together with the national network of 211 call centers, the Maryland Information Network<\/a> and 211 Maryland are proud to celebrate 211 Day this Saturday, February 11. Powered by the nonprofit Maryland Information Network, 211 is the go-to resource for Marylanders, helping 590,000+ people in the state access help by phone, text, chat, or web for immediate or long-term challenges last year. 211 is a free, confidential, 24-hour information and referral service. [Editor’s Note: Text and chat are now available through 211, Press 1 are now available through 988.]<\/p>\n

\u201cAs we celebrate 211 Day and the impact 211 Maryland has in our state connecting anyone in need to vital resources, please remember help is always available by dialing 2-1-1,\u201d said Delegate Bonnie Cullison. \u201cIt’s free and confidential.\u201d<\/p>\n

Throughout 2022, 211\u2019s trained call specialists connected people to locally available services, including help with rent, food, utility bills, and health care. For example, 72,000 connections were made for individuals in need of mental health services, 48,000+ connections made for utility assistance, and 39,000+ connections made for suicide crisis or emotional distress.<\/p>\n

Quinton Askew, president and CEO of 211 Maryland, is encouraging people to use the service.<\/p>\n

“People reached out to 211 this year to find information on basic needs, like eviction prevention, utility assistance, elder care, or to find the closest food bank. They also called for information to access transportation services, how to locate job training or find free tax filing support,” Askew said. \u201cWe are a central connecting point for so many services in Maryland.\u201d<\/p>\n

Through the service, Marylanders can access over 7,500 resources, including health and mental health services, health insurance programs, support for older adults and people with disabilities, Kinship programs, home health care, transportation, connection to disaster related services, immigration services, and support for children, youth, and families. Help is available in 180 languages through translation services.<\/p>\n

For the past 12 years, 211 Maryland and its Call Center Network have been ensuring Marylander\u2019s have access to the health and human services they need. On 211 Day, the organization would like to thank the local call centers: Baltimore Crisis Response, Community Crisis Services, Grassroots Crisis Intervention, Life Crisis Center, Mental Health Association of Frederick County and Community Crisis Services, and United Way of Central Maryland.<\/p>\n
