How 211 Can Help Your Community

At 211, we know people across Yukon are looking for supports and services to help guide them through life’s challenges. We expect that your community is turning to you, as their elected leader, and your staff for answers on how best to cope during this global pandemic.

We can help. With funding from the federal government, 211 services have been expanded to every corner of Canada. Any person in Yukon can simply dial 2-1-1 to immediately connect with a 211 Navigator. Navigators help connect people with the programs and services they need in their communities. This can be anything from navigating COVID-19 relief programs to securing food, utility relief, employment support or so much more. The helpline is the front door to critical government and community programs and services. 211 is completely free, confidential, and available 24/7, 365 days a year in 150+ languages.

We have linked a communications tool kit we hope you will use to support your community and help raise awareness of this service. In this tool kit, you will find social media graphics and posts.

If your office requires any printed promotional products, such as posters or brochures, please reach out to me. We can arrange delivery.

Please consider pointing your community to 211 if they contact your office looking for support with:
