The resolution recognizes February 11, 2025, as "211 Day" in the State of Rhode Island to honor the essential services provided by United Way 211. This free and confidential service operates 24/7, connecting residents to critical health and human services such as housing assistance, food access, and mental health resources. Since its inception in 2007, United Way 211 has played a vital role in supporting individuals and families, particularly during emergencies and public health crises, and has responded to over 213,000 requests for assistance in 2024-2025 alone.

The resolution also highlights the importance of the data collected through 211 services, which aids policymakers in making informed decisions to better serve the community. By proclaiming "211 Day," the House of Representatives aims to acknowledge the significant contributions of United Way 211 and its collaborative efforts with various community organizations to enhance the well-being of Rhode Islanders. The Secretary of State is tasked with transmitting certified copies of the resolution to United Way of Rhode Island and other relevant partners.
