Starting Point Behavioral Healthcare Makes It Easier to Find Local Resources

Starting Point Behavioral Healthcare just launched a new community resources webpage which allows individuals to search for social care based on zip code. Through their partnership with Findhelp, the organization has inserted a search box on their website which allows local residents to find needed resources like food, housing, goods, transit, health, money, care, education, work, and legal support.

Findhelp was built in 2010 to offer an easier way to find social services and to connect to them directly and electronically. Findhelp has since built the largest network of free and reduced-cost programs in every ZIP Code across the United States – this includes federal, state, county, municipal, and local resources in the biggest cities and smallest towns.

We work hard to consistently expand our service line so that the residents of Nassau County have immediate access to what they need,” says Laureen Pagel, CEO at Starting Point. “We can’t do this alone, though. I encourage all nonprofits and social service providers in the area to build a Findhelp profile and consistently update your offerings so that our community has a ‘go-to’ resource when looking for help.”
