Our services
The services delivered by the different agencies connect the community to a wide range of social supports and services that may include health, education, housing, advocacy, advice, counselling, facilitation services, income and benefit support.
Community Links are part of a move towards a new approach the Ministry of Social Development is taking to simplifying the way people access government and community support services in recognition that people may come to us with a range of complex needs.
The different agencies that are operating from Huntly Community Link provide one place for residents to gain information, advice and assistance. Community Link has been an opportunity to build on the strong relationships already cemented in Huntly and it will continue to evolve through the spirit and passion of those working at Huntly Community Link.
