What is 2-1-1?

2-1-1 is an easy to remember telephone number that connects callers, at no cost, to information about critical health and human services available in their community

The United Ways of New Hampshire (UWNH), a group of ten New Hampshire United Ways, has collaborated with five comprehensive Information and Referral (I&R) agencies in the State of New Hampshire to obtain ownership of the 2-1-1 number from the Public Utilities Commission. The initiative is also supported by United Way of America and the Association for Information and Referral Services (AIRS).

2-1-1 NH was launched on June 11, 2008. Residents in New Hampshire can contact 2-1-1 NH toll-free by dialing 2-1-1 in state or 1-866-444-4211 from out of state.
