Description

Description (Service)

Advocacy to address the seniors housing crisis in our region

  • brings together expertise from community development, policy, and housing-united by a common vision for aging with dignity, safety, and community
  • works with residents, organizations, developers and government to promote and encourage actions to identify land, plans, and designs for developing housing options that are well-located throughout Simcoe County
  • Four pillars of work are:
    • Shared Accommodation - Promoting students renting a room in a senior's house or seniors renting to seniors using a supervised platform to ensure suitable matching.
    • Home Modification - Modifying existing homes to provide the options a senior might need
    • Co-Housing Options - Encouraging shared and intergenerational living models that foster connection and reduce isolation
    • Support Services- establishing supportive services for activities of daily living
