West Island Citizen Advocacy has released its fifth edition of the Grey Rights booklet, aimed at providing valuable information pertinent to seniors.

The bilingual guide provides basic information on a variety of topics such as health and social services, housing for seniors, pensions, will and estates, mandates, as well as other topics. “It’s very important that seniors understand their rights and have access to this information” said Citizen Advocacy director Mary Clare Tanguay.

The publication of the document was made possible thanks to a grant from New Horizons, the Canadian government , Quebec’s Ministère des familles et des aînés and the Berthiaume-Du Tremblay Foundation.

West Island Citizen Advocacy is a non-profit organization, which recruits, trains, matches and follows up competent volunteer citizen advocates, who work on a one-on-one basis or on a team with a person having a handicapping condition.

To receive your copy of the Grey Rights booklet, call Citizen Advocacy at 514-694-5850.

Anyone interested in becoming a volunteer can call 514-694-5850 or 514-631-9151 or check www.westislandcitizenadvocacy.com.

    Hi everyone. It is nobler to declare oneself wrong than to insist on being right - especially when one is right. Help me! Can not find sites on the: Anna paquin nose job. I found only this - nose job center. Celebrity nose job before and after: in the end, the many music tattoos the concealed work. Jamie is a 19 television direct night society line merchandising who has also compared her episode and it's room for a storyline. Thank you very much :eek:. Fabia from Timor.
