Age-Friendly Community Voices Series: Social Participation

Join us in-person to share your experiences, and impact age-friendly planning in your community! Join the Age-Friendly Community Voices Series! The Grand River Council on Aging and the Self-Regulation, Emotion, and Aging Lab at Wilfrid Laurier University invite you to participate in the Age-Friendly Community Voices Series. Across 9 sessions, we hope to hear about the experiences of folks aged 5-to-105 across the City of Brantford and County of Brant. Following the orientation session, each session will focus on a different pillar of age-friendly communities, as defined by the World Health Organization (WHO). Folks are invited to attend as many sessions as they wish. Coffee/tea and snacks will be served at all sessions. --------------------- This fifth session will focus on the age-friendly pillar of "Social Participation". Please register to this event (it is free!) if you would like to take part in the orientation session. If you have any questions, email us at [email protected], or leave us a message at (548) 889-5010. --------------------- Registrations for future sessions will be separate, but an overview of topics, dates/times, and locations is provided below for your planning purposes!
