Age Friendly Edmonton

Age Friendly Edmonton is an initiative of the Edmonton Seniors Coordinating Council, supported by the City of Edmonton.

Age Friendly Edmonton (AFE) seeks to build a city that values, respects, and actively supports the well-being of older adults. In working towards this, AFE strives to ensure that:

Seniors are engaged, participating, and contributing to their communities
Seniors are safe and well in their home and communities
Seniors are respected and included
Seniors have access to the programs, services, and resources they need

We at Age Friendly Edmonton believe that age is a gift to our city.

Age Friendly Edmonton includes four 'Action Hubs,' in which dedicated volunteers work on projects and push for policy changes supporting older adults. These Action Hubs include:

Reducing Ageism
Supporting Aging in Place
Responding to Diversity and Inclusion
