MADISON (WKOW) — United Way of Dane County has launched a Spanish version of the 211 Wisconsin App.

The move aims to enhance access to health and human services for Spanish-speaking individuals and families in the Badger State.

The app, originally launched in October 2021, has over 5,200 users statewide. Its Spanish version was developed with Centro, a local nonprofit, ensuring cultural and language needs are met.

“At Centro, we believe that access to information is a cornerstone of equity,” Karen Menéndez Coller, executive director of Centro Dane County, said. “This is how we build a stronger, more connected community for all.”

Renee Moe, president and CEO of United Way of Dane County, emphasized the significance of the new app.

“Expanding access to essential services for Spanish-speaking residents brings us closer to the vision of a Dane County where everyone can thrive,” Moe said.
