WHEN:           

Tuesday, February 11,
2014 (2-11-14)

11 a.m. – 1:30
p.m.

WHERE:         

The Center at Cathedral
Plaza, 555 West Temple Street, Los Angeles, CA 90012 (Parking
available underneath Center; entrance off of Temple Street.)

WHY:   

211LA County, an
independent nonprofit organization, is the free, 24/7 resource line where Los
Angeles County residents, including the most underserved and vulnerable
populations, are directly screened and connected with the services they need
for themselves or their children, including shelters, meals, autism diagnosis,
veterans’ services, substance abuse programs, health care, mental health
services, and access to jobs. The organization currently
assists more than 500,000 underserved individuals and families in L.A.
County every year.  However, an additional 200,000 requests for
help go unanswered. With increased funding, 211LA County
can help the callers it misses find relief and solutions to problems like

finding shelter, gaining access to public benefits and obtaining quality
healthcare.
