Urge
Congress to Pass the Calling for 2-1-1 Act
|
Only two
members of the South
Carolina delegation are co-sponsors on the "Calling for
2-1-1 Act" (H.R.211/S.211). We need your help to get more sponsors.
Please contact Jim Clyburn and Henry Brown and ask them to urge their
leadership to SCHEDULE A VOTE BEFORE THE
AUGUST RECESS. Only 60% of our state has access to the great 2-1-1 service that we enjoy in the Lowcountry.
Join us in
urging our members to pass the Calling For 2-1-1 Act now. Learn more about
2-1-1
in South Carolina.

Volunteer Reception Center Prepares for Disasters
|
Trident United Way is working with county emergency management partners on an innovation to manage "unaffiliated" volunteers following a disaster.
The volunteer reception center will prevent the second disaster that sometimes occurs when untrained volunteers flood a site without any plan to use their skills.
TUW's 2-1-1 Hotline, which already takes an active role before, during and after disasters, is spearheading the Volunteer Reception Center. Look for more information in future newsletters.
