In partnership with Women and Gender Equality Canada, $3 million is being directed to 211 to ensure that the crisis supports Albertans need are there when they need them. This investment will help continue to build a reliable, streamlined 24/7 service that connects Albertans to the resources that serve their urgent needs.

This new funding will help improve service coordination with the wrap-around supports that gender-based violence survivors need, such as counselling, health care and legal services, among many others.
