On Tuesday, June 18,
from 1:00-2:00pm, MPP Sarah Jama will be at Welcome Inn Community
Centre to celebrate the receipt of an Ontario government grant
funded through the Ontario Trillium Foundation
(OTF).
Over the past two
years, the grant has enabled Welcome Inn to add a new
component—Life Navigation—to its Community Visitation Program.
Supporting vulnerable and isolated seniors living in Hamilton's
central core, Life Navigation has significantly increased the depth
of support offered to seniors with more complex needs by providing
a Seniors Support Line and assisting them as they navigate the
health care system, food insecurity, unstable housing situations,
personal relationships, and mental health
supports.
