Senior Safety Series

Over the past six months, the Elder Abuse Case Management Program has served over sixty seniors who are looking for information and support in our community. After gathering common themes, Unison at Veiner Centre is pleased to announce the “Seniors Safety Series: Aging Matters”.

Our friends from Canadian Mental Health Association will share their expertise about some of life’s challenges as we age.
