United Way of Rhode Island connects families to emergency financial help through their 211 helpline, which operates as the state's front door to social services. When you call 211, they can connect you with emergency funds, utility assistance, food resources, housing help, and job training programs across Rhode Island.

Their Good Neighbor Energy Fund specifically helps families struggling with heating and utility bills, and they offer free tax preparation services through certified volunteers at over 20 locations statewide. The 211 helpline is available Monday through Friday, and you can also text your zip code to 898211 for help finding local resources. They work with thousands of local nonprofits and government programs to make sure Rhode Island families can access the support they need during difficult times.
