Southeast Michigan is now plugged into United Way 2-1-1, the multilingual hotline that links callers either looking to get help or give help, to more than 5,000 health and human services, 24 hours a day, seven days a week through an easy to remember phone number. United Way 2-1-1 makes connecting to help fast and simple. In fact, think of the system as the equivalent to emergency 9-1-1, for non-emergency individual and family needs instead. |
