How to find community assistance

Looking for help and don't know where to turn?

The United Way has set up a website and telephone hotline to help you figure out which agency or community group to contact for help. If you are looking for community assistance for a variety of needs - heating bill help, housing, counseling, medical issues, and more - then the United Way service is where you can turn for help.

You can access this information by visiting the United Way's website at

http://www.nc211.org/

Or you can simply dial 211 from any telephone to speak to somebody in person.

This service provides resources for people in Guilford, Randolph, Davidson, Forsyth, and other NC counties.
