Maine Points: Maine 211

Posted on January 21, 2022 by dmartignetti

211 Maine has been a statewide program since 2006. Danny speaks with Nikki Williams, Maine 211 Program Manager

211 Maine receives thousands of calls for assistance every month. Last year, the most common reasons were for heat and electricity payment assistance, rent payment assistance, food pantries, and community shelters.

The 211 Maine Contact Center is based here in Maine. Mainers can connect to specialists and receive information and referrals by calling 211, texting their zip code to 898-211, or visiting our recently redesigned website at 211maine.org.
