211 assistance.
Quad County News - October 29, 2007
A new non-emergency number is now available in some areas. Call 211. The services provided are non-emergency services. Still use 911 for emergencies if that is the number for your area.
211 is for finding shelter for the night, long-term housing, help if you have a bill you can't pay, like a utility shut off or a rent eviction.
The service is operated 24 hours a day and is through the United Way. The program was started about 10 years ago and is intended to be eventually nation-wide. If you do not know where to turn, call 211. If you need emergency help call 911.
Jackson county is the first county in the area with this service. The other Quad Counties are in the process of bringing up a 211 service for their county.
From cell and pay phones use 1-866-561-2500; this is a toll free call.

"WILX-TV 10 has moved its digital channel from channel 55 back to channel 10 digital. This may mean that a VHF antenna will be needed to receive the signal over the air. Most new UHF digit table top antenna may not receive this signal. Also remember to rescan your digital receiver for the new frequency with WILX TV. WILX TV will be the only station in Lansing on VHF. Grand Rapids, Flint, and some other communities will have VHF frequencies. An Outdoor antenna is recommended to recieve stations from these communities. This is the link to WILX antenna information."
