Access to communication is a key factor in overcoming homelessness and poverty. Voice mail is critical in seeking jobs, housing, healthcare or safety by simply providing a personal, 10-digit phone number allowing for messages available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. The Stewpot is the regional coordinator of agency subscribers to Springwire's Community Voice Mail. Visit dallascommunityvoicemail.blogspot.com for more information, or call 214-746-2785 ext. 248 to speak with the coordinator. There is also a Jobs Hotline, 214-431-4163 for clients seeking employment.

Through our partnership with Springwire, The Stewpot offers resources and opportunities to Community Voice Mail participants through their personal voice mailbox and email account. Community Voice Mail connects people in crisis with the social services and support networks that surround them - expanding a community's capacity to care. By providing free access to tailored communication tools, Community Voice Mail restores a sense of hope and dignity, enabling people in transition to stabilize their lives.
