About the Caribbean Canadian Seniors (CCS) Program
The Caribbean Canadian Seniors is a group established in the 1970s and is one of the signature programs at the JCA. Engaging seniors that are members of JCA and members of the local community is the top priority in this program. The Caribbean Canadian Seniors group keeps seniors connected, active and involved as part of a community and does this well by having sessions every Tuesday and Thursday. The seniors that attend are a
mixture of both male and female and represent the diversity of the Caribbean.
