The 211 nonprofit contact center was launched in 1980 as a crisis line. In 2004, it was transformed into a 211 service, providing callers with referrals to basic needs programs such as food, shelter, health care, and more. Since then, 211 has expanded: consumers can still reach the service by calling 211, but they can also text or email or use the 211 mobile app and online database.
