Seniors Peer Support Program

The Seniors Peer Support Program is a volunteer-driven service that provides person-to-
person outreach to connect with isolated and at-risk seniors in our community.

The project exists and continues to run based on the generous donations of our
community given to the Langley Care Foundation.

The seniors we serve.

Participants in the program are:

55+

Living alone or are geographically isolated from family and friends

May be experiencing changes in physical functioning or health status

Developing early cognitive changes, such as memory loss and confusion

Limited financial means that prevent participation and impact the senior’s ability to maintain social connections for their general health & well-being.
