Hey,
Following this initial contact, the child is given the name and *number* of two BACA members residing geographically closest to them, who then become the child�s primary contact person(s).
Is it right that the number there means *amount*? or *phone number*
Thanks |

I expect it means "phone number".
In UK, particularly, they say, "give me your number", when they mean phone number. |

Yes, that's how it works in American English, too. |
