Many participants of this program are socially isolated; have experienced trauma as newcomers from war-torn countries; are survivors of torture; are seniors living with various disabilities, some visible, some not. Seniors who participate are from countries such as Mexico, Dominican Republic, Ecuador, Columbia, Peru, Chile, Argentina, Uruguay, and Paraguay. Program elements include: excursions to cultural and civic centres, computer and English language literacy, activities focused on health and wellness, workshops on aging and mental health, and arts and music-based initiatives.
