You may recall it wasn’t so long ago we were proud to be part of the province-wide launch of the United Way’s latest effort to support Manitobans with the phone number 211. It was back in October the phone service went live province-wide, and since then has been a literal lifeline for thousands of people across Manitoba.

Today is National 2-1-1 Day... It’s February 11th... second month and eleventh day. We’re proud to partner once again with the United Way to highlight the service, and asked Manitoba 211 Director Daria Lukie to share the background behind 211 day.

 

 

Daria also took some time to reflect on the 211 service, what it is and the impact its had since launching.

 

 

Again, you can dial 211 from any phone (landline or cell) from anywhere in Manitoba. You can also access the online resource by clicking here.
