Our Partnership with United Way 211
Connecting Our Community to Help, Hope, and Essential Support
We are proud to partner with United Way St. Croix and Red Cedar Valleys and their 211 program — a trusted resource serving Western Wisconsin for more than five years. Together with hundreds of community organizations, 211 helps ensure individuals and families can quickly find the support they need during times of challenge or crisis.
Through this partnership, our community members have access to a comprehensive, up-to-date network of local services. When someone contacts 211, they are connected with a trained Community Resource Specialist who listens with care, understands their situation, helps determine eligibility, and works through any barriers to accessing support. Every interaction is compassionate, confidential, and focused on real solutions.
Help is available 24/7/365 — always free, always confidential, and always judgment-free.
211 connects neighbors to essential services such as:
- Housing and eviction prevention
- Food, diapers, and basic needs
- Transportation to critical services
- Support for seniors, including Meals on Wheels
- Health and community resources
Because strong partnerships matter, in 2025 the 211 program:
- Assisted 2,644 community members
- Provided 8,397 referrals to local services
Together, we are strengthening our community by making sure no neighbor has to navigate hardship alone.
