Have you ever wondered how to find a community service when you or someone you know needs help?
The first step in finding help is knowing WHO to call... you know to dial 911 for emergencies... and 411 for directory assistance... and now, you can dial 2-1-1 for community health and human resources! Dialing 2-1-1 can help you locate a variety of services in the following counties in South Central Alabama: Montgomery, Autauga, Elmore, Lowndes, Dallas, Macon, Perry, Bullock and Pike counties, including...

In 2000, The Volunteer and Information Center and the River Region United Way became partners

of the Volunteer and Information Center in Montgomery. The geographic area covered is Montgomery, Autauga, Elmore, Dallas, Lowndes, Macon, Perry Bullock and Pike Counties.
