The House Resolution No. proposed by Representatives O'Neal and others seeks to declare February 2025 as 2-1-1 Month in Michigan. The resolution highlights the significance of the 2-1-1 service, which has been operational since 2002, providing Michigan residents with free access to a wide range of health and human services. This helpline is available 24/7 and has proven to be a vital resource during natural disasters, offering assistance for housing, job training, utility support, food, and more. In fiscal year 2024 alone, the service received over 406,000 requests for help.

The resolution expresses gratitude for the dedicated community care advocates who operate the 2-1-1 service, recognizing it as a valuable community asset. By designating February 2025 as 2-1-1 Month, the resolution aims to raise awareness about the essential services available to residents in need, particularly in connection with the date February 11th (2-11). The House of Representatives encourages the public to utilize and promote the benefits of the 2-1-1 service during this designated month.
