A symposium on seniors housing is on the schedule.
It will be held on Thurs., May 2, 8:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the Civic Centre. Admission is free.
B.C. Seniors Advocate Isobel Mackenzie will be the symposium's keynote speaker. Presentations from the city, BC Housing, and Northern Health are also scheduled and will be followed by question and answer sessions.
"One of the fundamental elements of a healthy and inclusive community is having a range of housing types to accommodate people of different ages, life stages, incomes, and abilities," said city social development coordinator Sarah Brown.
"The City of Prince George plays a key role in housing in the community, and as such is excited to offer this symposium to community members."
The symposium will include a trade show giving information about a range of programs and services of special interest to seniors.
