A special day for 211 Northern Ontario.
With it being the 11th day of the second month of the year, the organization is celebrating what it’s declaring 211 day.
Dialing 211 is a way for residents to gain access to provincially funded services.
The free number has information on government, health, community and social services. This is a non-emergency line only.
211 can be accessed by phone, chat, text or email in more than 150 languages.
The main objective for the free service is for people who are experiencing hardship, are feeling concerned about a family member or friend, to call 211 and can easily gain access to more information about resources in their area.
