Community Services assists some of the most vulnerable people in our community, from infancy to senior years. We provide help to tens of thousands of Niagara residents each year through social programs, most of which the provincial government mandates, funds and regulates.
Additionally, through service agreements with the province and the Local Health Integration Network, we manage long-term care homes and provide community supports for seniors in Niagara.
