211 Eastern Oklahoma Connecting People With Resources During The Holidays

With the holiday season upon us, 211 Eastern Oklahoma is available to help anyone in need.

211 is able to help people find the resources they need and get them connected with the organizations that can help them.

211 is a resource that people can use at any time. However, during the holidays, 211 said it usually sees an uptick in the need for specific resources.

Some of these resources include finding holiday meals, holiday baskets, finding warm clothing, or even housing assistance.

The goal is to help these people out as quickly as possible.

"Typically it’s less than 24 hours some agencies there may be an agency in your area with your service that is open on Wednesday but for the most part we have thousands of resources available and the turnaround is very quick because the need is very drastic," said Wes Mitchell, Executive Director of 211 Eastern Oklahoma.
