Our Role in 211 Across the Maritimes
United Way Maritimes plays a vital role in strengthening and sustaining 211 services across the region.
In Nova Scotia and New Brunswick, United Way Maritimes provides critical funding and support to ensure 211 services remain accessible and responsive to community needs.
In Prince Edward Island, 211 is delivered directly by our United Way of PEI team, ensuring Islanders have a trusted, local connection to the services they need.
Together, this coordinated approach ensures that no matter where you live in the Maritimes, help is always within reach.
Real Support. Real Impact.
Every day, 211 connects individuals and families to programs and services that help them navigate challenges, find stability, and take the next step forward. Because when people can find the help they need, entire communities grow stronger.

The navigator was kind, patient, and understanding. She went above and beyond. I really needed to talk to someone and she was so helpful.
