SWOOS, as a committee of OSCA, addresses issues concerning older adults living in Old Ottawa South and beyond, to maximize safe, active and healthy aging. In collaboration with other neighbouring communities, health and community support organizations, academics, congregations and older adult advocates, we have created a practical Guide to Healthy Aging in the Community and invite you to read it.

Guide to Healthy Aging in the Community
How to tackle the challenge of remaining in your home as you age. It covers:

Seniors Health Innovations Hub
Senior (and younger) volunteers from several central Ottawa communities are working to create a place that will at once deliver direct service and organize innovations and encourage new services for seniors.

Community Feedback Questionnaire
We need to know what is missing for healthy aging and who is willing to participate in our vision. By answering the questionnaire, you will provide information needed to move forward as we continue to develop the SHIH.
Come back as often as you wish before January 31, 2024.
