Chebucto Connections works within the Spryfield/Sambro Loop community, with partners and people, to create inclusive spaces and personalized programs to help people access what they need to move forward. We see the potential within each person we work with, and we draw on the power of the community to help make lasting change.  We provide programs and services to help address our community’s most urgent social needs including food insecurity, poverty, education and social isolation.
