Your United Way 2-1-1

It's Working!

  

Lisa, an elderly woman, was being physically abused by her care giver ans had received severe burns to her arm. She was extremely frightened and afraid to call Adult Protective Services (APS). Lisa had been given a 2-1-1 card from a concerned neighbor who had encouraged her to dial 2-1-1 and report what happened to her. Our 2-1-1 call specialist, Ana, was able to calm Lisa down and help her feel comfortable with the idea of reporting the abuse. But, Lisa was still too fearful to make the call herself so she asked Ana to do it for her. Ana called APS made the report and later learned that an investigation commenced immediately. When Ana phoned back to check her progress, Lisa was very grateful for the help.

Because of the investment that makes 2-1-1 possible, more abuse is reported and investigated. Our communities are safer. Our families and friends are healthier and happier.
