AUDIO: “211 Day” Honors Phone/Text Service For Citizens In Need Of Assistance

It’s true that Valentine’s Day is around the corner, but one way to show someone you care that works all year around is three simple numbers: 2-1-1.

Mike Rubino, who is the director of the Beaver County chapter of United Way, joined Matt Drzik on A.M. Beaver County to discuss the 211 assistance system. Rubino described the many different non-profit portals in which citizens can receive navigation towards help towards finding food, resources, and counseling.

Rubino also took time to mention how the 211 service can also be used via text, and how the United Way is trying to spread the word about the resourcefulness of the service.
