Welcome to the Visionlink: Indiana 2-1-1


Welcome!


Visionlink is proud to welcome another new customer, Indiana 2-1-1. These good folks have created a statewide solution that helps Hoosiers across Indiana find the local resources they need, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Additionally, aggregated and non-identified data is collected to assist communities in assessing needs and allocating resources.

We are pleased to support their work and will begin converting their data and using new API tools to assist their partnership efforts with other agencies and nonprofits across their fine state.

For additional information about 2-1-1 across the country, visit 211.us. To locate another 2-1-1 Center, visit 211.org.
