What is 811?
811 provides free and confidential telephone consultations with a healthcare professional for non-urgent issues.

Before heading to a clinic or hospital, think 811! Whether you need health advice, psychosocial support, or guidance to the right service, calling 811 can help.

🕒 Available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week

📞 811, Option 1 – Info-Santé for Health Advice
A nurse assesses your health situation and provides recommendations for home care or directs you to the service best suited to your needs.

📞 811, Option 2 – Info-Social for Psychosocial Support
A psychosocial intervention professional offers support and guidance for psychosocial or mental health concerns.

📞 811, Option 3 – Primary Care Access Point
This line is reserved for people without a family doctor. A nurse provides home care recommendations and, if needed, refers you to the most appropriate healthcare professional (pharmacist, nurse, doctor, etc.).

Spring cleaning is a great time to get rid of unwanted clutter, like your dead batteries!

Whether they are single-use, rechargeable, lithium-ion or button batteries, disposing of batteries properly will help protect you and the environment.

Batteries can cause sparks if they come into contact with debris, so never throw them in the trash or household recycle bins.

Find out where to recycle batteries near you by entering your postal code here: https://recycleyourbatteries.ca/find-a-drop-off-location/

💜 **When We Give, We All Gain** 💜

Together, we can help create a world of greater gender equality through generosity, support, and collaboration.

The International Women's Day 2026 Campaign reminds us that when we give, we help create opportunities for women and girls everywhere. Giving isn’t about losing something - it’s about multiplying impact.

When individuals, organizations, and communities give their support, we open doors, amplify voices, and create meaningful change. ✨

As individuals, we can all take action by:
💬 Speaking up against stereotypes
🚫 Challenging discrimination
🧠 Questioning bias
🎉 Celebrating women’s achievements
🤝 Supporting and uplifting one another

When women thrive, we all rise. Let’s give our support to gain progress for women and girls everywhere. 💜
