📣 We Want to Hear From You!

By 2030, every Baby Boomer will be at least 65 years old. As our aging adult population continues to grow, it is more important than ever that we understand the needs, challenges, and priorities of older adults in our community.

The Grande Prairie & Area Council on Aging is inviting aging adults to complete our 2026 Aging Adults Insight & Input Survey. Your feedback will help us:

✅ Improve programs and services
✅ Identify gaps and challenges facing older adults
✅ Develop strategies to address those needs
✅ Strengthen community partnerships and advocacy efforts

Your voice matters. Together, we can help create a community where aging adults are empowered to thrive.

🎁 Complete the survey and enter to win one of several great prizes!
(Providing your name and phone number for the prize draw is optional and is not required to complete the survey.)

☕ Not a fan of online surveys? Come visit us at the office, have a cup of coffee, and complete the survey with us. We'd love to chat and hear your thoughts!

Please share this post to help us reach as many aging adults as possible. Every voice makes a difference!

We wanted to share a great community event being hosted by Aquatera!
Clean out the garage, clear out the junk drawer and join us for the annual Recycling Roundup on Saturday, June 13, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Eco Centre (10431 96 Avenue)!
Hosted by Aquatera Utilities Inc. in collaboration with Alberta Recycling, this family-friendly event makes it easy to safely and responsibly dispose of hazardous household waste while learning more about how the Eco Centre helps protect our environment by keeping harmful materials out of the landfill.
Plus, a shredding truck will be on site courtesy of Prairie Disposal, giving residents a secure way to dispose of confidential documents.
Bring your old electronics, batteries, paint, and other hazardous household items for safe disposal, and help make a positive impact on our community and environment.

Based on the Canadian SCREEN-8® nutrition risk screening tool and developed with input from older Albertans, it takes just a few minutes to complete.
