This discussion critically explores the crucial role of non-profit organizations (NPOs) in Montreal in supporting the well-being of older adults during the COVID-19 pandemic. Conversations with NPOs, older people, and policy makers have illuminated the precarity experienced in the non-profit sector, which has been charged with the primary responsibility of supporting the social inclusion of older adults.
The Brown Bag Lunch Research Series 2022-2023 is offered by the Department of Applied Human Sciences.
These sessions are opportunities for faculty researchers to discuss an issue, topic or area on which they are working. At each session there will be plenty of time for questions and discussion.
