Hamilton Jewish Family Services provides a variety of supports and services for those 55+. We believe in promoting social inclusion and improving overall wellness.
Our 55+ programming includes:
- Adult Day Program – We provide participants with one-on-one opportunities to work with staff, skill development and social interaction. Staff take an individualized approach, focusing on the strengths of participants and drawing on their needs, interests, and experiences. A primary focus of this Day Program is to provide social inclusion opportunities. Note: Majority of program participants are Russian language speakers.
