Program Overview – Community Care, Seniors Active Living Centres & Outreach
Wood Green Community Services’ Outreach to Diverse Seniors program funds grassroots groups and communities to deliver programs for seniors to help them reach their health goals, and enable them to age in community. Grassroots groups deliver programs focused on health promotion, outreach, and connection to existing services. The goal of this program is to provide funding and oversight to grassroots groups to address gaps in health service provision and work towards equity in accessing health services in a community setting.

The Coordinator works collaboratively across Wood Green programs, particularly with the Outreach Team and other Community Care staff, and maintains strong working relationships with external stakeholders, including grassroots organizations, seniors' groups, healthcare providers, hospitals, primary care teams, community health centres, social service agencies, volunteers, and government-funded partners. The role is responsible for fostering collaborative partnerships, promoting equitable access to health promotion initiatives, supporting community capacity building, monitoring program performance, and contributing to data collection, reporting, and continuous program improvement.
