211 recently received a call from a mom who had been doubled up with another family in an apartment. She and her children were asked to leave and she contacted 211. Our team connected her with a Spanish-speaking staff member and this mother and her children were quickly connected to housing resources. This is how United Way brings our community together to solve problems. In this case, a family in crisis knew to connect with the most comprehensive local services database and trusted she would be treated with respect and helped. We utilized our network of effective nonprofits to house this family, work that is made possible by our donors who make sure services - and housing inventory - are available.
