Call 2-1-1

The new 2-1-1 telephone number is now available to help Missourians find fast, free and confidential help for health and human services. But, do not look for “Diabetes Management Clinics” there… none are listed.  Myrtle Hillard Davis Comprehensive Community Health Center is the only site listed as offering “Chronic Disease Self Management Programs” for people with diabetes.  The 2-1-1 call center, available 24 hours a day, seven days a week is being offered throughout Missouri by the United Way of Greater St. Louis.  2-1-1 connects people to needed health and human service organizations and volunteer opportunities in their communities. Missouri will become the 21st state to have complete coverage. More information and resources, including a searchable database of services available can be found at www.211missouri.org.  If you are a provider with diabetes care services… please get listed at http://www.211missouri.org/agenciespage.aspx.
