Health and well-being of older adults pose many challenges including substance use.

With our Addiction Support Program (ASP), we serve older adults in Scarborough with issues surrounding substance use and behavioural addictions, such as gambling.

Our Addiction Support program is currently offering small group outdoor meetings once or twice weekly.

6-10% of older adults have problems with alcohol abuse (Seeking Solutions, 2004).
