Governance Board Representee

Our Mission: To help seniors remain safe, healthy, independent and to thrive in their homes and local communities.
Senior Support Services (CPHC) is a not-for-profit, community governed organization, that provides a broad range of community support services for seniors, as well as adults 18+ living with cognitive/physical challenges.
Our programs are designed to support and promote ‘aging in place’ with a focus on mental and physical wellness, security, independence and removing isolation barriers. Our consumers across Lanark, Leeds, & Grenville (as well as Kingston & area for our Lifeline Program), include aging seniors, those living with dementia/ Alzheimer’s or other cognitive challenges, stroke survivors, and caregivers. As we strive to keep loved ones at home, caregivers are supported to prevent ‘caregiver burnout,’ through in-home respite, Adult Day Programs, education, and group counselling.
We are funded by Ontario Health, the United Way of Leeds & Grenville, donations, fundraising, and some revenue generated from our Lifeline program.
Our volunteer governance Board is requesting your help with representing seniors in your community and supporting their goal to ‘age in place.’ We have all experienced a parent, grandparent, or relative, that has faced the challenges of aging, and the fear of losing their independence, their home, their community.
Requirements:
▪Participate Board meetings 1 hour/month (Sept through June).
▪Prepared to join one of two (2) Board Committees (Governance / Finance) 1 hour every 3 mos.
▪Must be 18+ years
