In this economy, most of us have either experienced an unmet need or know a friend or family member who has. Maybe, you are worried about your grandmother on a fixed income getting enough food. Perhaps, a relative falling on hard times needs shelter and your home is not a viable answer.
In any case, it’s hard to know where to begin to search for potential solutions. This can also include becoming more informed to follow up behind a loved one to ensure they did their homework or aren’t harboring false hope for assistance that simply isn’t available.
The 2-1-1 online resource is a good place to start. A partnership between One Voice for Volusia and The United Way of Volusia and Flagler Counties, this Web site is your 24-hour source of information on over 1,000 local community services in Volusia and Flagler Counties. Here’s the link to the Web site: http://www.211live.org/
If you can't find what you are looking for by searching this directory, just pick up your phone and dial 2-1-1 at any time for assistance. If your telephone service provider does not connect you when you dial '2-1-1', use (386)-253-0564.
Remember, just because a resource is listed online, doesn’t mean every need can be met. It’s critical to take the time as soon as possible to thoroughly research leads in order to get a better handle on the saturation at hand. Putting this task off can lead to additional stress and strain on the entire family. Good luck!
Think of an economy where people could be an artist or a photographer or a writer without worrying about keeping their day job in order to have health insurance. This is definitely a nice post. Great works. Thanks for sharing with all of us.Keep posting more.
