Seniors Mental Health and Addiction Response Team

JFSC is proud to announce the start of our Seniors Mental Health and Addictions Response Team.

An initiative supported by the City of Calgary to work with seniors in our community who are struggling with mental health and addiction. The team is comprised of a social worker and LPN who will be working in an outreach capacity. This initiative will bridge the gap for seniors accessing mental health or addiction services and will advocate on the needs and specialized resources required to best support this population. The Seniors Mental Health and Addiction Response Team aims to reduce barriers and make services inclusive for all so that every senior is able to get the help they need.

We are open for new referrals, please call our main line at 403-287-3510 for more information.
