Support
Reaching Out
The Remember and Rebuild project is documenting how the COVID-19 pandemic has affected the lives of people in Saskatchewan. Over two years since the pandemic began, people across the province are emotionally and physically tired. We hope our work will point to new directions for collective action that can improve health equity across Saskatchewan. Yet as individuals and communities we also may need to pause, breathe, and reach out for support.
Here are some agencies and organizations that can support you or others in need.
If you have a medical or mental health emergency or are concerned you may be a danger to yourself or others, call 911 or go to the nearest open clinic or emergency room.
