Resource Tuesday: one number for everything that is not a medical emergency.
Nevada 211. Call 2-1-1 or 1-866-535-5654. Text your ZIP code to 898211. Or search it yourself at nevada211.org.
Call specialists are on the line Monday to Friday, 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. Pacific. Free. Confidential.
What they can point you at: rent and utility help, food, transportation, childcare, legal aid, employment, senior services, behavioural health and addiction services, domestic violence services.
Why this is on our list — a lot of what pushes a Veteran toward a crisis is not a clinical problem. It is a shut-off notice, an eviction, a car that will not start. Those things have phone numbers.
Put it in your phone. Then send it to somebody who is three weeks out from needing it.
