The Southern Alberta Council on Public Affairs (SACPA) presents a session discussing the changing face of aging in today's world.
Redefining Age: Seniors’ Centres in a Changing World
As the Lethbridge Senior Citizens Organization (LSCO) celebrates its 50th year, we recognize that the needs and expectations of seniors are evolving like never before. Aging is not simply a matter of years — it is shaped by community, culture and changing perspectives on what it means to grow older. This presentation explores how seniors’ centres must adapt to support a new generation of older adults who seek purpose, connection and engagement in diverse ways. Together, we will explore how the LSCO can embrace this shifting landscape and continue to thrive for the next 50 years.
Speaker: Kaitlynn Weaver

She has 10 years of experience in the non-profit and human services sector and graduated from the University of Lethbridge with a Bachelor of Arts and Master of Arts.
