Are you and your loved ones prepared for a Public

Are you and your loved ones prepared for a Public Safety Power Shutoff (PSPS)? People with Access and Functional Needs living in high fire-risk areas can call 211 to plan and prepare for PSPS events. If you have physical, developmental, or intellectual disabilities, chronic conditions, injuries, are an older adult, or use medical equipment that requires electricity, call 211 or text "PSPS" to 211-211 to begin your personalized Care Coordination.

As fire season approaches, utility companies may need to turn off power as a last resort to ensure public safety when there's an increased wildfire risk. This is known as a Public Safety Power Shutoff, or PSPS. Call 211 to learn how to prepare for a PSPS event.

¿Están usted y sus seres queridos preparados para un corte de energía por motivos de seguridad pública (PSPS)? Las personas con necesidades funcionales y de acceso que viven en áreas de alto riesgo de incendio pueden llamar al 211 para planificar y prepararse para los eventos de PSPS. Si tiene discapacidades físicas, de desarrollo o intelectuales, afecciones crónicas, lesiones, es un adulto mayor o utiliza equipo médico que requiere electricidad, llame al 211 o envíe un mensaje de texto "PSPS" al 211-211 para comenzar su Coordinación de atención personalizada.

A medida que se acerca la temporada de incendios, es posible que las empresas de servicios públicos deban cortar el suministro eléctrico como último recurso para garantizar la seguridad pública cuando existe un mayor riesgo de incendios forestales. Esto se conoce como corte de energía por motivos de seguridad pública o PSPS. Llame al 211 para saber cómo prepararse para un evento de PSPS.

☕ Happy National Coffee Day!
We all like our coffee a little different...different flavors, different strengths, and made just the way we like it.
Our programs are a lot like that. Each has its own focus, its own strengths, and its own way of serving our community. And while they may all look a little different, together they make Connecting Point what it is. 💛
So today, we’re celebrating our programs, our people, and the coffee that keeps us all going. ☕️

💙 This is why we do what we do.

When we asked a recent caller how likely they were to recommend 211 to their friends and family on a scale of 1–10, they gave us a 10.

And when we asked why, they shared:

“If there was a number higher I would choose that! You have been the best thing I have had in my life in many years. 211 has been a godsend. You are all angels.”

Connecting people with the right resources, information and support can make a real difference — and we’re grateful to be here when our community needs somewhere to start.
