Announcements/Community
June is Seniors
month in Ontario
For more than 20 years, Ontarians have been mark-
ing June as Seniors' Month. This annual celebration
is a way for communities to acknowledge and honour
the contributions of seniors across the province.
This year's theme is Active Living: Healthy Living.
For the first time, June 15, 2006 will mark World
Elder Abuse Awareness Day (WEAAD). Lead by the
International Network for the Prevention of Elder
Abuse (INPEA), countries around the globe are being
asked to support and participate in World Elder
Abuse Awareness Day to raise awareness of this
important issue.
Seniors' month events include award ceremonies,
recognition events, socials and seniors' information
fairs. People can access information - free - of -
charge - on everything from advance care planning
and safe medications use to preventing elder abuse
and securing a guide the Ontario
Seniors Secretariat produces
on all programs and
services available for
seniors in Ontario.
We are encourag-
ing Ontarians across
the province to join in
the celebrations taking
place hi their local community to thank older adults
who have worked hard and continue to contribute to
the prosperity that we all enjoy today.
Seniors account for approximately 13 per cent of
Ontario's current population. This number is expect-
ed to climb as baby boomers get set to retire in five
short years. And Ontario is one of the best places in
the world to grow old.
For media planning special features for seniors, we
would be pleased to supply you with information,
including Seniors' Month promotional materials, the
Senior's Guide, and high res. images as required.
