Funded in part by the Illinois Department of Human
Services, Division of Substance Use Prevention and Recovery through
a grant from the Substance Abuse and Mental Services Administration,
www.Logancountyresources.org is an interactive online
website that serves as a resource directory for residents of Logan
County. The website is a self-service tool that can connect Logan
County residents to health and community resources in the area.
In addition, The United Way of Logan County has now partnered with
PATH 2-1-1 in Bloomington, Illinois to provide United Way 2-1-1
service to Logan County residents. PATH has been providing this
service since 1971, and we join a long list of communities In
Illinois that have their services available.
United Way 2-1-1 is an easy to remember telephone number that
connects people with important community services, such as:
• Basic Human Needs: such as food, shelter, rent and utility
assistance
• Physical and Mental Health Resources: such as health insurance
programs, Medicaid and Medicare, medical information lines, crisis intervention
services
• Employment Supports: such as job training, transportation
assistance, education programs

• Support for Older Americans and Persons with Disabilities: such
as adult day care, respite care, home health care, independent living programs
• Support for Children, Youth and Families: such as afterschool programs, family
resource centers, mentoring, tutoring, protective services
To access United Way 2-1-1, Logan County residents either call 2-1-1 or search a
list of resources by category at
https://www.pathcrisis.org/community-resources/2-1-1/ after searching by
their zip code.
Callers will be routed to the services that meet their needs, providing an easy
way for Logan County residents to find answers when they need help through these
resources. Find out more about
