Social isolation of seniors : a focus on new immigrant and refugee seniors in Canada

Description

Social isolation is a silent reality experienced by many seniors, and particularly new immigrant and refugee seniors. This resource is intended to heighten awareness and sensitivity and help organizations, friends, family members, and communities address the particular social needs of these seniors, many of whom may be unable to communicate their concerns to others. This resource is meant to supplement the two volume set Social Isolation of Seniors previously developed by the Federal/Provincial/Territorial Ministers Responsible for Seniors.
