The Mission

211 Broward is the live, 24-hour comprehensive crisis helpline, providing all people with crisis, health and human services support and connecting them to resources in our community.
 
211 Broward: Help Starts Here

Knowing where to go is the first step to getting the help you need. EVERY HOUR OF EVERY DAY, SOMEONE IN BROWARD IS SEARCHING FOR HELP OR SERVICES – housing, food, financial assistance, relief from abuse, family issues, depression, childcare, suicide prevention, etc., but navigating the maze of city, state and non-profit agencies can be overwhelming and confusing. Since 1995, 211 Broward, has been the community’s central point of entry into the health and human services system. Dialing 2-1-1 is an easy way for people who need help to get connected with the community service providers that can help them. The 2-1-1 Broward helpline is available to every individual and family in Broward County.
