If you or someone you know needs immediate assistance, simply dial 2-1-1 or visit 211OC.org to search for local health and human service resources.

Individuals and families must navigate many systems to access the care and services they need to be healthy. This journey is difficult—sometimes impossible—because there is little coordination between or within our healthcare, housing, behavioral health, government, and social services systems. With the leadership of Orange County United Way’s key service, 2-1-1 Orange County (211OC), a network of cross‐disciplinary community partners are working together to ensure that all in Orange County are served equitability, efficiently, and effectively. We are committed to ensuring that all in Orange County feel connected and supported.
