S.A.L.T is a partnership of seniors in the community, Toronto Police 42 Division and SPLC. The S.A.L.T. Committee develops community programs to address the needs of seniors in the community such as crime prevention, public safety, victim services and personal planning. S.A.L.T. works with partners in the community, including seniors’ community services providers to increase seniors’ awareness and capacity of addressing such issues. It is a volunteer, community-based organization designed to meet the needs of seniors in Scarborough by addressing their crime and safety concerns. The goal is to raise awareness on potential crime related issues and to empower seniors to reduce their victimization. The S.A.L.T. committee meets regularly to plan and offer virtual workshops.

We offer a 6-week workshop series on Living a Healthy Life with Chronic Conditions, Living a Healthy Life with Chronic Pain, and Living a Healthy Life with Diabetes in English, Chinese, and Tamil. This program is available for both, individuals dealing with these conditions, as well as caregivers. Participants will learn skills and tools including healthy eating plans, developing goals, problem-solving skills and managing medication to effectively communicate with doctors to manage their chronic conditions.
