2-1-1 COUNTS is the first tool of its kind that displays data about community-specific needs in real-time. The easy-to-use web-based tool enables users to check trends, make comparisons and share information with community leaders and agencies to improve service delivery. For example, if food pantry providers knew that a large number of hungry families in a certain ZIP code were calling for help, providers could shift resources to that location and solicit need-specific donations. 211COUNTS.ORG FILTERS BY REGION, ZIP CODE, TIME RANGE, CATEGORY, SUBCATEGORY
