Mission

The Senior Advisory Committee is not a decision-making committee but rather a "source of reflection and proposals" which takes into consideration the needs of a group that is a growing part of our population. The Senior Advisory Committee provides recommendations and possible solutions for dealing with issues encountered by seniors in their daily lives with a view to ensuring their well being, and allowing them to flourish. The elder council is not a decision-making committee but rather a "source of reflection and proposals" which takes into consideration the needs of a group that is a growing part of our population.
