What is Inform Alberta?
The Grande Prairie Volunteer Services Bureau is working with the City of Grande Prairie to develop an online database of services in our City. Inform Alberta is a province wide database of community services and is linked to 211 Community Information services. While 211 is currently unavailable in our region, we aspire to create a thorough directory for our region so that the 211 system can be activated here.
