Community Information & Referral

2-1-1 Arizona

The Community Information & Referral (CIR) Board of Directors and Arizona United Ways have established a broad based coalition of city, county, state, philanthropic, business, faith-based, and non-profit organizations to assist in the development of a strategic plan for supporting the utilization of the 2-1-1 three-digit number for easy access to information about and referrals to health and humans services Statewide.

Coalition members have assisted in planning and hosting the community forums thus far held in Casa Grande, Flagstaff, Prescott, Show Low, Tucson, and Yuma to obtain community input on the plan. The CIR Board of Directors has adopted the coalition’s recommendation to expand its current board membership to include statewide representation. The CIR Board of Directors has established a 2-1-1 Arizona Advisory Board to provide recommendations and advice on expansion of its core functions, fund development efforts.

Current Status and the Future of 2-1-1 Arizona

As of July 27, 2010 the Arizona Corporation Commission (ACC) unanimously voted in favor of designating Community Information & Referral as the lead agency and provider of 2-1-1 services in Arizona. We thank our supporters throughout the state including Valley of the Sun United Way for helping us on our way to providing this vital service to Arizonans in need. The official launch date of 2-1-1 Arizona is tentatively scheduled for February 11, 2011 (2/11/2011).
