Why Might I Call Neighbourlink?
Neighbourlink Parkland assists those individuals who are unable to access the usual government assistance, they have exhausted other resources and are falling through the cracks in the system. We can react immediately and offer hope to the hurting. Each situation is assessed, and help is provided in several ways. Some of the most common are financial assistance, vouchers, medical, ride program, transportation, help closet, and used furniture. We are open to any crisis that we might be able to assist with.
We exist because there is a large gap in service in our community and we fill that gap. We are interested in the individuals personal, emotional and spiritual needs. Every individual is met with kindness and compassion. We are welcoming of all who may need help with no judgement or discrimination.
