Counsellors are volunteers appointed by the Ministry of Social Services and Housing to aid senior citizens with problems or concerns. Counsellors are senior citizens themselves, they understand the needs of seniors and are knowledgeable about services for seniors. There are Senior Citizen Counsellors in almost every community in the province. To contact a counsellor, inquire at your nearest Ministry of Social Services and Housing office, which is listed in the blue pages of your telephone directory or contact your seniors centre.
