Ocoee Connect is our local resource and referral hotline, administering utilities and housing assistance as well as referrals for food, child care, mental care, dental care, family services, and legal aid. If we don't directly provide the service requested, we will connect callers to a local agency with the most up-to-date information to help in a time of need.
