I work for United Way of America (now UW Worldwide) to provide support to 2-1-1 providers and help extend the reach of 2-1-1 across the country. UWW has a page on "<a href="http://liveunited.org/PublicPolicy/DoA2009.cfm" title="Advocate for 2-1-1" rel="nofollow">Advocate for 2-1-1</a>" that your readers might find helpful if they want to get their members of congress on board with the proposed legislation to extend 2-1-1 services to all fifty states and from any types of telecommunication device (currently not all cell phone or internet-based phones can access their local 2-1-1 provider). Again, I appreciate your help in getting the word out about 2-1-1!! Hi, Shelly,

It's hard to look for solutions when you feel isolated. Sometimes just knowing that there IS help is enough to get us out of the dumps and looking for solutions.
