Who We Are
With the growing number of health and social service organizations in the Edmonton Capital Region, a lack of services is often not the problem.
The problem is knowing what services exist, which ones are best suited to meet your needs, and how to access them. If you have ever tried to find the right resource to meet your specific needs, you know that it takes time and often a lot of phone calls.
Not anymore!
The next time you have a community resource question, just call 211 (your community resource know-it-alls)!
At 211, we know:
- where a single-parent can find childcare
- where students can find free and low-cost events and entertainment
- where a newcomer to Canada can learn to speak English
- where a senior can volunteer their time
- where a family can donate their new and gently-used household goods
- and many other ways you can help your community and your community can help you
We are here to provide community resource referrals to: individuals and families who are in need of support; helping professionals who are looking for a specific program or service for a client; and members of the community who want to give back through volunteering and/or donations.
It's the easiest way to get all the information you need on the social, health and government services in your community.
So, the next time you've got a community program or services question, dial 2-1-1.
We know it all so that you don't have to.
