June is Seniors Month in Ontario

June is recognized as Seniors Month in Ontario. This year’s theme, “Ontario Seniors — Let’s Get Moving,” highlights programs and initiatives that promote wellness, social engagement, and education for seniors and older adults.

Some of these initiatives include:

• Seniors Active Living Centres (SALC) Program – Celebrating over 60 years of supporting wellness through social interaction, education, and active living opportunities to help seniors stay healthy and independent.
• Seniors Community Grant Program – Provides funding to local not-for-profit groups and organizations that work to reduce isolation and promote well-being.
• Guide to Programs and Services for Seniors – Offers helpful information on health, finances, housing, transportation, and safety.

Seniors Month is a wonderful opportunity to celebrate the important contributions of older adults in our community and to support active, engaged lifestyles.
