2-1-1 is coming to Wyoming.  Governor Freudenthal has allocated funds from the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) for start up costs and three years of operating costs.  The announcement was made by Cynthia Pomeroy, 2-1-1 Project Director, late last year. 

2-1-1 is an easy to remember phone number that connects individuals with resources in their community.  2-1-1 offers information on a broad range of services, including rent assistance, food banks, affordable housing, health resources, child care, after-school programs, elderly care, financial literary, and job training programs.  Specialists at 2-1-1 centers facilitate thougsands of volunteer hours and directo donors to locations where their gifts may be most neeed and appropriate.
