What is an Age-Friendly Community?

    An age-friendly community enables people of all ages to be engaged and participate in community activities and treats everyone with respect, regardless of age. It is a place that makes it easy for older adults (aged 55+) and seniors (65+) to:

    • stay active;
    • maintain physical and mental wellbeing;
    • stay connected to people that are important to them; and
    • access services, facilities, and programs that are responsive to their needs.

    What is accessibility?

    Accessibility is providing equitable access and experiences to everyone regardless of ability or disability.
