Hennepin Technical College (Hennepin Tech) and Minnesota State have partnered with United Way 211 to establish a statewide basic needs resource hub. The basic needs resource hub provides Hennepin Tech students access to basic needs resources and support available on campus and in the community via phone, text, or chat 24 hours a day and 7 days a week.
United Way 211 provides free and confidential health and human services information. If you’re looking for information about services available in your community for you or a loved one, they can help. Here are examples of some basic needs that can be addressed by this new service:
- Housing
- Food insecurity
- Child Care
- Mental Health
- Healthcare
Visit the 211 website to learn more or to explore resources and support that may be available.
