Supporting older Canadians
from coast to coast to coast to age with dignity
All of HelpAge Canada’s national programs focus on improving the quality of life of older people who have social and economic barriers that often limit their active contribution to society. Frontline community-based services are critical to the well-being of older adults because they deliver vital programming that meet their needs close to home.
