Who we are
Annual Reports
In the past year, we have accelerated our efforts to move data to action.
Together, we learned many initiatives are making a difference. We also learned that many people in Nova Scotia still feel left behind.
This report goes beneath the soil. It captures the belief that in a healthy society, we need to nurture the often ignored challenges that live below the surface. We are committed to digging even deeper with the support of community and partners to uncover through our 2025 Quality of Life Survey what truly matters to Nova Scotians.
