munity and. Social Services,
Keith C. Norton, has
announced the allocation of

vices for senior citizens

own homes, and that seniors
should have the opportunity
to participate as fully as
.possible in the life of the
community. .

program's approved budget.

met by voluntary donations,
user fees or municipal
grants:

existing programs, the allo-
cations will, help develop new
community-based services.

favours involvement of vol
unteers• to help provide
services, whenever approp-
riate.
These funds are part Of the
Ministry's total budget of
$3,034,800 thii fiscal year for
