Research highlights increasing role of senior centres for aging citizens
A new study by SFU researchers finds that while senior centres play a crucial role in promoting aging citizens- wellbeing they also face challenges in ensuring they are well-positioned to meet the emerging needs of older adults. An analysis of six independent, not for profit senior centres in Metro Vancouver showed that the capacity of senior centres would be enhanced through several measures: by encouraging collective advocacy among centres, developing more mutually beneficial research partnerships between centres and academia, and increasing sustainable funding.
