The House concurrent resolution recognizes February 11, 2026, as National 211 Day in Vermont, honoring the significant contributions of Vermont 211, a health and human services helpline operated by the United Way of Vermont. Vermont 211 provides essential information and referral services to Vermonters, connecting them to over 1,100 community-based agencies and offering access to 3,270 programs and 11,900 services. The resolution highlights the dedicated staff who assist individuals in a confidential manner, helping them assess their community service needs, and emphasizes the helpline's role in maintaining the integrity of the 911 system by managing nonemergency calls.

The resolution also notes Vermont 211's collaboration with various organizations, including the Department for Children and Families and Vermont Emergency Management, particularly during emergencies. In 2025, Vermont 211 received over 61,000 contacts, resulting in more than 22,000 referrals, primarily for basic needs such as housing and public assistance. The General Assembly's resolution aims to celebrate Vermont 211's vital role in the community and directs the Secretary of State to send a copy of the resolution to Vermont 211.
