Unlike other seniors associations of its kind, the GWSA is notable for its outreach to older adults in the Guelph and Wellington County community by way of its Community Support Services Programs.

For those who do not or cannot participate in the Activity Groups and Education Programs offered at the Evergreen Seniors Centre, the Community Support Services Programs provide a vital link to inclusion and participation. By breaking down barriers caused by physical, socio-economic and health considerations, the GWSA is able to reach some of the most vulnerable, isolated and at risk older adults in the community. Participation in the Community Support Services Programs does not require membership in the GWSA, and there is either no cost or a nominal fee for the participant.

Community Support Services provides for the following programs:

• Feeling Better Eat Well
• Felling Better Move Well
• Seniors Offering Support
• Outreach
