If you’re looking for general assistance in the Beaver County area, the 2-1-1 phone system is designed to help in the case of situations involving areas of life including utility assistance, childcare, disaster response, and more.

Lynell Scaff from the Beaver County Collaborative Action Network and Mike Rubino from the United Way of Beaver County joined Matt Drzik on A.M.
