Calling 9-8-8 isn’t the only way to ask for help. Too nervous to call? Not in a position to talk without being overheard? Whatever the reason, you can always text us.

You’ll receive the same level of support, and our responders will communicate with you entirely by text.

Seeing someone in public wearing a high quality mask always makes me so happy, but I still have no idea what to do

Do I make eye contact and smile? Quietly appreciate each other's presence? Ask for their hand in marriage?

Choices, choices

Stigma is a substantial barrier to accessing health care and support for people with substance use disorder. Terms like “addict” or “junkie” define a person by their use and depict addiction as a personal failure. Put the person first. https://t.co/hHoqNBXBVh #NAAW

PLEASE READ & RT: we are aware residents in Ottawa have received pre-recorded telephone messages saying they have been exposed to a monkeypox outbreak.

These did not come from OPH. They're a scam.

Don't return the call, & don't press a number to speak to a representative. (1/2)
