211 Placer launched to the public on July 1! 

"The launch of 211 Placer couldn't come at a more crucial time for our residents," said District 3 Supervisor Jim Holmes. "I am very grateful to the community members who have helped push this effort forward; you helped us get it done."

Placer County had previously been the largest county in California without a 211 system. The proposal for 211 arose out of conversations with community groups, law enforcement and other local leaders, including Beverly Anderson, a member of Placer People of Faith Together.

"It's such a great new opportunity for all of us. It's a miracle," said Anderson, who has been a grassroots supporter of 211 in Placer County for about a decade.

Connecting Point now services 211 in Nevada County, Placer County, and the Tahoe Truckee region.
