The Pan-Canadian Age-Friendly Communities Reference Group

The Pan-Canadian Age-Friendly Communities (AFC) Reference Group proactively engages in various strategic activities (including the development of resources and presentations as appropriate) to help advance the AFC model across Canada. The Reference Group provides leadership on recommended guidelines and basic criteria with respect to AFC implementation and evaluation, for potential application by provincial and territorial governments, who are responsible for the delivery of AFC programs across Canada.

The Reference Group assists the Public Health Agency of Canada’s Division of Aging, Seniors and Dementia (DASD).
