"Last year, the City of Vancouver Seniors’ Advisory Committee initiated a special project to investigate the causes and consequences of social isolation and loneliness among seniors in Vancouver, and what the City of Vancouver and other stakeholders can do to help reduce or prevent these problems.
We have now completed our report, which includes 23 recommendations based on a detailed literature review and the insights of over 200 service providers in the Vancouver area. The report has been shared with City Council, and staffis currently reviewing it to advise Council on potential next steps."
A brochure for service providers also accompanies the report.
