Connect with resources in your community.
211 is a free, confidential service that connects individuals to human services in the province by telephone, text, or online chat. 211 also offers a searchable website with over 6,000+ listings of community government and health services across the province.
Issue
A significant barrier for individuals and families accessing the services they need is the complexity of finding the information they are looking for. Whether it is finding assistance with basic needs such as food, shelter, and employment; looking for support for an aging parent; or, trying to find daycare, navigating through all of the information out there can be overwhelming, confusing, and ultimately a roadblock to finding support.
