Age-Friendly Hamilton

Help Shape Hamilton’s Next Age-Friendly and Dementia-Inclusive Community Plan

Hamilton is beginning work on its next Age-Friendly and Dementia-Inclusive Community Plan (2027–2031).

The Hamilton Council on Aging, together with the City of Hamilton and the Seniors Advisory Committee, is inviting community feedback to better understand what is helping people age well, what barriers people are experiencing, and what priorities should guide the next plan.

The engagement is primarily focused on Hamiltonians aged 50+, but perspectives are also welcome from family members, care partners, service providers, businesses, organizations, and anyone with ideas or experiences to share.
