PA 2-1-1

The Federal Emergency Management Agency has partnered with 211 for years.  Although not yet officially launched in Central Pennsylvania, 211 is now in place in all 50 states as well as Puerto Rico and parts of Canada.  Following the recent disaster Tropical Storm Lee, FEMA referred Pennsylvania callers to 211.  Fortunately for those in Adams, Cumberland, Dauphin, Franklin, Perry and York counties, CONTACT Helpline had already connected the 211 phone lines.  When the 211 calls started coming in CONTACT Helpline was ready with a list of flood related resources including emergency shelters, contact information for clean-up crews and supplies, and information about applying for Federal funding to recover financial losses.    Find out more…
