Help starts here: Dial 2-1-1
If you are unable to reach 2-1-1 from your cell phone or you are calling from outside San Diego County, please use (858) 300-1211.
2-1-1 is the new national dialing code for free, 24-hour community, health and disaster information. Like 9-1-1 for emergency service, 2-1-1 has been set aside by the Federal Communications Commission for the public to easily access community information. Callers receive personalized information from a live phone specialist who can answer questions about a variety of nonprofit services and agencies. Phone specialists can also help callers find out where to go to volunteer or donate to their favorite cause.
On line, by phone, or in print:
2-1-1's powerful search engine is available online for people who want to search its service database themselves. Users can also look up services in 2-1-1's published directory, Directions, or in our specialized publications . For those who dial 2-1-1 by phone, calls are answered by phone specialists who are bilingual in Spanish and have access to other languages through a tele-interpreters service.
