Today, the Governor's office announced that the state's 9-1-1 system is being overtaxed by non-emergency calls related to COVID-19 and that moving forward, NC 2-1-1 will serve as the number to call for health and human service resources. 

Community members interested in receiving periodic text updates during the crisis are asked to text covidnc to 898211.
