Senior Peer Support
Abbotsford Peer Support for Seniors (APSS) is a seniors' non-profit volunteer organization that has been in operation since 1992.
The peer support program is a FREE service for seniors 50+ in Abbotsford. Peer support is a process in which trained senior peer support volunteers offer one-on-one visiting, empathy, listening, emotional support, option availability, and information to seniors to enable them to help themselves. We are one of several senior peer support groups in B.C.
We would like to thank the following for their financial support:
1. British Columbia Community Gaming Grant
2. Charitable giving by individuals
