When you’re sick, you want to get to the clinic as soon as you can, but that’s simply not possible for everyone based on where you live.

Vendors include Augusta Transit, GAP Ministries, Hope House and Augusta Partnership for Children.
“211 Day is a wonderful opportunity for us to bring attention to our free 211 helpline, as well as showcase the many services available right here in our community,” said Angela Collins, Director of Community Impact at United Way of the CSRA. “We are excited to bring together local agencies and organizations to ensure residents have access to the resources they need to thrive.”
