Neighbours Support Centre

It’s the weekend! 
Find a cozy corner in a local café. Wander a market. Stand in front of something beautiful.
Halifax has so much to offer — all you have to do is step outside. 
 

The Association of Black Social Workers has launched their Black Mental Health Clinic. They offer culturally responsive, Africentric clinical counselling and therapy services to African Nova Scotians & People of African Ancestry living in Nova Scotia. This includes up to 10 pro bono (free) counselling sessions, support for anxiety, depression, racial stress & racial trauma, individual therapy / group therapy and more! To access services, call 1-855-732-1253 Ext. 1 (spots are limited)

Another successful workshop with LISNS in the books!

We’ve already received emails from attendees sharing how informative the session was and how much they learned over the two hours.

A huge thank you to Heather, who delivered an incredible presentation and somehow talked for two hours straight while keeping everyone engaged the entire time!

We’re grateful for opportunities to connect our community with valuable information and resources.

No one plans to need a plan — until they do.

This free 2-hour workshop covers the three documents that protect the people you love: a Will, Power of Attorney, and Personal Directive.

Small things matter.

A check-in.
A shared meal.
A kind conversation.

That’s how stronger communities are built — one ordinary moment at a time. 💜

Job searching can feel exhausting — especially when you’re doing it alone.
But you don’t have to figure everything out by yourself.

Whether you need help updating your résumé, preparing for interviews, or just knowing where to start, there’s support here for you.

📍 Room 302
🕘 Thursdays | 9:30AM–12:30PM
✔ Free drop-in support
✔ No registration required

Sometimes the next opportunity starts with simply showing up.

Even in quieter seasons, community still matters.

If you’re going through a tough week or just need a bit of support — you’re not alone. We’re still here, and we care about you.

Drop a 💜 in the comments if you know someone who needs to hear this today.

Most people put this off. Don’t be most people. Join us Tuesday, May 26 at 6PM for a free workshop on estate planning tools — Wills, POA, and Personal Directives — in partnership with Legal Info NS.

Some of the most important work in our communities isn’t loud.

It looks like meals being served, doors being opened, and people choosing to show up—again and again.

This National Volunteer Week (April 19–25), we’re celebrating the people who make our communities feel like home.

And this year carries even more meaning—2026 is International Volunteer Year, a reminder of the impact volunteers have around the world.

Thank you for showing up. 💜

Connection makes the season better. 🌻
