Your Information Line (311 Health and Human Services Language Access Outreach and Marketing Campaign)

Many NYC residents who have limited English are not aware of the health and human services available to them. They can call 311 and now can learn about the programs as the information is available in over 170 languages and they can call anonymously without having to give their immigration status. Many residents fear enrolling themselves or their children in programs as they do not want to be deported. The City has Executive Orders 34 and 41 which prohibit city employees from sharing a person's immigration status with third parties. You can call 311 or go online www.nyc.gov/311
