Happy 211 day to our amazing team at the FRC! Andrew Escamilla, Lorna Devereux, and Sally Valdez are the friendly faces that are answering the calls when you dial 2-1-1 to get connected to essential community information and services including: healthcare, housing, food, transportation, employment, childcare, veterans’ services, tax filing, COVID testing, substance abuse, and much more. This service is especially important for our community now with the recent congressional action to end the emergency allotments for those receiving SNAP benefits starting March 1. These folks are helping families cover the gaps in food assistance programs and stretch their budgets.

Thank you 211 team for all you do at Hilltop and for our community! Check out the video below highlighting the statewide 211 efforts, and if you’re short on time, jump to 1:40 to watch Western Colorado shine and hear from Andrew!
