	211 Operations      Service Hotlines      Resource		Resource Department 211 LA County's Resource Department maintains a comprehensive database of over 4,000 health and human service agencies and thousands of programs and services available in Los Angeles County. The database is continually updated by a full-time team of professional resource writers, and a full-time department editor to monitor the quality and consistency of the database. Agencies listed in the 211 LA County's database must meet our agency inclusion criteria and complete an annual review to update their information. Database listings are also updated throughout the year when we are notified of changes affecting services. Our database meets the standard requirements (requires Adobe Acrobat Reader) of the national industry association Alliance of Information and Referral Systems (AIRS). The database listings contain information necessary to provide the best possible service referral, such as description of services, eligibility requirements or exclusions, target groups, geographic service area and restrictions. In addition, the languages offered, application procedures, hours of operation and fee requirements are also included. The database is written in a neutral style and format that does not make qualitative statements or judgments about services. The listings are not intended to promote a particular service provider or program. The information contained in our database is classified using 211 LA County's national AIRS endorsed Taxonomy of Human Services; a classification system designed for use of automated information and referral systems.
