Community Support

The Community Hub at the NPL will become the new Seniors’ Resource Center, in Saint Andrews; a one-stop, accessible space through which seniors or their family members can access up-to-date information and resources that will support their or their loved one’s aging journey. Many of these areas and services are difficult to identify and find. These needs could include learning how to navigate the internet for support, for equipment loans, advice on support, programs and services available, whether municipal, provincial or federal, or from other agencies. In addition, staff would also do on site visits to help assess needs and support those who cannot otherwise get to the resource centre. The space would have hard copy information and a computer for those who can come in to access information or learn how to access information.
