211 Connects Alabama helps residents find health and human services across the state through a free, confidential information and referral service. Trained specialists can help connect people with food programs, clothing, shelter, rent and utility assistance, health care, counseling, crisis support, and other community resources.

The service also helps people locate job training, transportation, education, child and family programs, support for older adults and people with disabilities, and resources for veterans and military families. During disasters, 211 Connects Alabama provides information about incident-related assistance, including shelters, road conditions, and cold-weather resources. Visit the official 211 Connects Alabama website to learn more and confirm current program details.
