Common questions

Where do I start if I need help in Lubbock?

Dial 2-1-1 from any phone, day or night. 2-1-1 Texas is a free referral line that finds local help for rent, utilities, food and more, and its South Plains call center is in Lubbock. The guides on this page also list Lubbock agencies directly, with phone numbers and official links.

How does 806 Connect check these resources?

We read every phone number, address, hour and eligibility line on the resource’s own website or an official government page, and we print the date we checked it. If we could not confirm something, we left it out. Programs change often, so call before you go.

Are these guides available in Spanish?

Yes. Every guide has a Spanish version, and resources that say they offer help in Spanish are marked. There is also a guide just for services in Spanish.

What if a resource is wrong or missing?

Use the Tell us or Report an error button at the bottom of any guide. We check the change on the official site before we update the page.
