GANS is pleased and excited to announce that our application to the Nova Scotia Department of Seniors Positive Aging Fund was successful!

The GANS proposal involves development of an online forum section to this website. We aim to create an online forum that is a discussion place for Seniors in Nova Scotia, and anyone who works with or for them.  To accomplish this, we are partnering with the Community Access Program (C@P).

C@P will help us deliver not only a useful and engaging online hub for discussions and information sharing, but will assist us in one of the key components to this:  two tiers of learning for Seniors – how to use the forum, and how to teach other seniors to us it as well.

With much of Nova Scotia soon to have access to broadband internet service, we think this online forum can be a great way for Seniors to reach out to each other and create online communities for socializing and helping each other.

The GANS board will meet soon to work out the details of implementing this project – so watch this space!
