Written by Written by Rob Lillpopp on September 2, 2010 – 9:06 am

2-1-1 in the Hudson Valley and Long Island region will be available 24/7 to answer non-emergency calls throughout the weekend, in response to the onset of Hurricane Earl. United Way of Long Island and United Way of Westchester and Putnam are working with their local governments and emergency managers to coordinate the provision of accurate and up to date information.

2-1-1 Hudson Valley provides services to Long Island and the North Country in addition to its own region.

From within the service area residents can dial 2-1-1. From outside the service area (for example if a family member who lives in another part of the state is looking for assistance for a family member who lives in the area) 2-1-1 Hudson Valley can be reached through an 800 number: 800-899-1479.

In New York City 2-1-1 can be reached by dialing either 3-1-1 or 2-1-1.
