Many organizations listed below do their intake through the 2-1-1 number, run by United Way. This is usually the fastest way to get into coordinated entry for assistance. We know this number is often busy and has long wait times – if possible, try to call early and reach out during a timeframe when you are able to stay on the line to reach the next available operator.
