Toronto Seniors' Strategy

Toronto’s population is aging and increasingly diverse. To prepare City services for the future, the next Toronto Seniors’ Strategy will have a 10-year focus.

Through city-wide community consultations and an online survey, we heard from seniors and older adults, including those who are Indigenous, Black, and who belong to equity-deserving groups. This important feedback will help shape the third Toronto Seniors’ Strategy, building on the success of the first and second Toronto Seniors’ Strategies.

The next Toronto Seniors’ Strategy will help the City adapt to support more people to be able to age safely, independently, and comfortably at home and in their community.

Thanks to those who participated in the Toronto Seniors’ Strategy community consultation process! A summary of what we heard will be shared in the fall.
