Serving Palm Beach County’s families of children with special needs (age birth to 22 years), the Helpline provides a one-stop shop for information, referrals and system-navigation assistance.
U.S. military veterans are some of our community’s greatest heroes. With over 80,000 veterans in Palm Beach County, MISSION UNITED is tasked to provide support to nonprofit agencies that serve our veteran population.
Veterans can find themselves underemployed, unable to access physical and mental health treatment, or struggling to maintain adequate housing. Nearly 50% of veterans who need treatment for mental health conditions seek it, and only 50% of those receive minimally adequate care. Veterans and their families can access these programs and resources through the 2-1-1 Helpline.
Through MISSION UNITED, United Way of Palm Beach County and our partners serve those who served our country by ensuring veterans receive the support needed to lead fulfilling, healthy lives after completing military service. This is accomplished by fostering communication and collaboration among these agencies, while providing capacity building and financial support grants. We complete this through working with local government, the Veterans Administration and other non-profit organizations to ensure success.
MISSION UNITED’s vision is to develop a comprehensive and collaborative network of Palm Beach County and non-profit resources that ensures no veteran or veteran family needs go unmet.
MISSION UNITED’s mission is to assist Palm Beach County veterans and their families to successfully transition from military service and re-adapt to civilian life by coordinating trusted veteran-oriented services that provide the fundamental services needed to promote veteran stability and long-term self-sufficiency.
