211 Metro Chicago—a free resource connecting individuals in need of assistance with essential health and social services support—is now available via phone, text, web chat and database search 24/7 for all Cook County residents.

United Way of Metro Chicago and our partners came together this past fiscal year to address basic needs and strengthen disinvested neighborhoods. We are excited to share what we accomplished together in our 2021/2022 Impact Report.
