211 is your province-wide connection to thousands of services and programs offered by non-profits, local community groups and government departments.

It’s your place to go when you don’t know where to turn.

The United Way of Colchester County, along with the five other United Ways in Nova Scotia, has partnered with 211 Nova Scotia to help provide all community members with free, confidential and easy access to information regarding social, health, community, and government services in their own communities.

The 211 service is important because it connects people. Whether it is to information, resources, or other community members, those connections are vital in helping Nova Scotians feel empowered about their own lives.
