United Way 2-1-1 is a 24-hour, 7 days a week, WEB-based community information and referral service covering nine counties throughout Northeast Florida. The service is nationally accredited by The Alliance of Information and Referral Systems (AIRS), the American Association of Suicidology (AAS) and certified statewide by the Agency for Health Care Administration (AHCA). It is one of the first 2-1-1 Call Centers to be able to enter a call into a shared data base, followed by an electronic referral to an agency which can access caller information via the same shared data base.
