2SLGBTQIA+ Support Guide: Nova Scotia & Canada
This 2SLGBTQIA+ Support Guide is part of a series of outputs from the project “Countering Anti-2SLGBTQIA+ Misinformation in Rural Canada: Investigating How Older Canadians Interact with the Anti-SOGI Movement in Alberta, British Columbia, and Nova Scotia.” The project is a partnership between the Canadian Institute for Far-Right Studies and the Department of Political Science and Global Development Studies at Saint Mary’s University.
The guide provides accurate and up-to-date information about initiatives, programs, and services available in Nova Scotia and across Canada. It includes resources related to gender-affirming and inclusive healthcare, mental health, and counselling supports, as well as a substantial section on community and culture that highlights community-based organizations and groups. Additionally, it lists crisis-intervention services and other forms of assistance that promote the safety, inclusion, and overall well-being of 2SLGBTQIA+ persons.
By bringing these resources together in one place, this guide aims to promote awareness, reduce barriers to access, and support the 2SLGBTQIA+ community—not only in moments of crisis, but also by nurturing connection and promoting solidarity.
