- What does it mean when we say 211NS is confidential? It means you can contact 211NS and discuss your needs in a safe, private environment. Our trained Navigators listen without judgment and help connect you to community and government services while respecting your privacy.
- There are seasons in life when everyone needs a little extra support. Whether you're stretching your grocery budget or facing an unexpected setback, food support programs are there to help. Call or text 2-1-1, or visit ns.211.ca.
- Sometimes, we don’t need someone to fix everything. We just need someone to show up. CARE provides 24/7, in-person, trauma-informed support for non-emergency crises. The service has expanded across the Halifax peninsula, Dartmouth, Woodlawn and Cole Harbour.
- Behind every call, text, email, and chat with 211 Nova Scotia is a dedicated team. While Community Resource Navigators support people directly, others work behind the scenes to keep our resource database accurate, our information current, and our service trusted.
