"The Older Adults Hub is bringing in as many programs and providers as possible into one space, and truly creating a community space where people can come and access multiple services and attend multiple programs all at one time. It's bringing people together and giving them an opportunity to share their stories and get to know each other."
Spencer Lanthier is a Community Development Worker with the Kingston Community Health Centre. He, along with the Community Development Team at KCHC, work alongside the Rideau Heights community to develop accessible programs and events for people of all ages, including an Older Adults Hub.
