On June 13, we celebrated National Long-Term Care Day.

On this day, we recognize the essential role of LTC homes, their residents, team members, caregivers, and volunteers.

Join us in expressing our sincere thanks and appreciation to all those who help to enrich the lives of those who call long-term care their home.

TRO Executive Director, Lisa Gordon, was invited to present at Penetanguishene 55+ Centre's Senior Information Day earlier today! Lisa highlighted the benefits of Therapeutic Recreation in supporting healthy aging, social connection, independence, and overall well-being within the community.

As a growing Centre dedicated to fostering an age-friendly and active community, this topic strongly resonated with attendees and complemented the range of services and resources shared throughout the day and at the Centre year-round.

Let’s continue creating spaces where everyone feels included, valued, heard, and empowered. Small changes can remove big barriers and make our communities stronger for all.

Together, we can build a more accessible and inclusive Canada
