Mass2-1-1's Child Care Information Line is part of the statewide network of community-based childcare resource and referral agencies (CCR&Rs), and is supported by the Massachusetts Department of Early Education.

The Child Requiring Assistance (CRA) Line provides services for children and youth who runaway or are truant, children who are having serious problems at home and school and also children who may be victims of commercial sexual exploitation.

It is difficult for many people in Massachusetts to find and afford safe, reliable housing. If you are struggling to find or pay for housing, you are not alone. Mass211 can help find options to pay your rent, mortgage, or utilities bills so you can stay in your home.

Mass 211 partners with the Massachusetts Emergency Management Agency (MEMA) and local offices of emergency management to provide citizens with critical information and non-emergency assistance before, during and after emergency or disaster events.
