Find help by text

Text what you need and get three places back. Reply SAVE to keep one.

Illustration: Find help by text

Not everyone has data or a smartphone handy. If you have turned on texts, you can now find help without opening Front Door at all.

  • Text what you need to the Front Door number, like “food bank” or “shelter tonight”. You get three places near you back, with phone numbers and a link to see more.
  • Reply SAVE 1, 2, or 3 to save one to your account. PLAN saves it as somewhere you are going. DONE marks that you got help there.
  • Questions and photos still go to your inbox, the same as before.
  • Replies follow the same rules as every Front Door text: only when your texts are on, never between 8pm and 8am, and STOP always works.
  • Live texting starts once the Front Door number’s carrier registration is complete.
