A Facebook group dedicated to supporting Nova Scotians during the pandemic is closing up shop, but its creator hopes people will keep stepping up to help others. Decaillet and Tucker worked full time while managing the group, a balance Decaillet called "extremely intense." "It was a little overwhelming … we discovered burnout in a different way, but it was also a really rewarding part of the work," Decaillet said. Both Tucker and Decaillet said they plan to spend less time on social media now that Caremongering-Hfx has closed. Tucker plans to focus her volunteer efforts on housing justice, and Decaillet hopes to help migrants get settled in the province.
