This submission is made jointly with Langley Seniors in Action (LSA), a COSCO BC affiliate member, based on a project undertaken by the then Langley Seniors Community Action Table (LSCAT). LSA (formerly LSCAT) functions as a planning table and brings together community organizations to discuss and find solutions to problems older adults face in our daily lives.
Our hope is that this brief will assist the Status of Women Committee to understand the dire circumstances faced by low-income older women living on their own and to find meaningful solutions.
