Free Zoom Webinar on Thursday, November 19, 2020 from 10:00 am to 11:30 am
Join Putnam Community Service Network Agencies for a FREE WEBINAR via Zoom on Thursday, Nov. 19 from 10-11:30 am to learn about the ALICE® in Putnam County.
For those that aren’t familiar with the term, ALICE stands for “Asset Limited, Income Constrained, Employed.” At its core, it is a new way of defining and understanding the struggles of households that earn just above the Federal Poverty Level, but not enough for a survival budget.
In addition, United Way will also demonstrate how its free 211 Helpline can help nonprofits and agencies better serve their clients. United Way’s 2-1-1 is a free, confidential, multilingual information (over 200 languages) and referral helpline. As COVID-19 continues to unfold, 2-1-1 will be available for residents of the Hudson Valley, Long Island and upstate New York, answering questions about food assistance, housing and shelters, utilities, abuse prevention, suicide, foster parenting, medical help and more.
