AI Summary
This resolution, a House Resolution from Rhode Island, officially designates February 10, 2026, as "211 Day" within the state to acknowledge and honor the crucial services provided by United Way 211. United Way 211 is a free, confidential, and round-the-clock service that connects Rhode Islanders with essential health and human services, such as help with housing, food, mental health, and disaster response. Since 2007, United Way of Rhode Island has managed this program, which supports individuals and families in need, offering assistance in nearly 200 languages and dialects, and has acted as a vital communication system during emergencies. The resolution also recognizes that the data gathered by 211 helps inform policy decisions and resource allocation, and it directs the Secretary of State to send certified copies of this resolution to United Way of Rhode Island and other community partners.
