The 'Faces of Peel Senior Link' Banner Campaign

Peel Senior Link created the idea of the 'Faces Campaign', to express publicly the honour and respect felt for those seniors we serve. These individuals represent the largest portion of our aging population, who have chosen to live in the community. With our support, we make independent living possible for seniors who might otherwise experience repeated hospitalizations or the premature need for a Long-Term Care facility. >> [more]
