Residents of Orangeville and surrounding areas are invited to join the Central West Community Care Access Centre (CCAC) at a free Seniors' Forum on Wednesday, October 28 to learn about long-term care services, the importance of early planning and seniors' options for staying at home longer.

This session is an important step to empowering families with the information they need to make decisions best suited to their needs and those of their loved ones."
