The information and referral line is operated by volunteers 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and receives human service information and referral calls. PATH answers for the United Way 2-1-1 information and referral hotline for 50+ counties in Illinois.

Mission Statement

Providing Access to Help to Improve and Save Lives.

Description

Providing Access To Help (PATH) began on the campus of Illinois State University in 1971 as a drug hotline. The service quickly grew to provide crisis response and later to add community resources and referrals.

PATH is accredited by the American Association of Suicidology and Inform USA.

In 2009 PATH became a pilot site for 2-1-1 in McLean, Livingston and DeWitt Counties. PATH will be adding additional counties to our 2-1-1 calling area throughout 2012.

We average over 100,000 calls annually.

Over the years of service to the community our scope and services have widened but our underlying mission remains the same - connecting people to the help they need.

In addition to the crisis and referral hotline PATH provides services to individuals experiencing homelessness.
