North Simcoe
DIRECTORY OF
SENIOR SERVICES
2020 - 2022
About the North Simcoe
Directory of Senior Services
This Directory was created in response to requests about available
senior services in North Simcoe and surrounding areas. This was a need
raised through public consultation during the development of Tiny’s Local
Aging Plan in 2016 and through working with Senior Advisory
Committees in neighbouring municipalities. The Directory is a resource
guide and serves as a phone and service directory for seniors and their
families. It is published every two years.
We would like to acknowledge and thank the Ministry of Seniors &
Accessibility and the County of Simcoe for making this project possible
with funding received through the Seniors Community Grant Program
and the Simcoe County Age-Friendly Municipal Grant Program.
Connecting seniors, their families and caregivers with services in
the community is important to North Simcoe municipalities. However, it
is not the purpose of this directory to include all available services. We
have made every effort to provide accurate listings, but, we do not
endorse the services and agencies listed here, nor are we legally
responsible for their actions.
The information contained in this document may have changed
since the publication of this directory.
The Townships of Tiny & Tay and Towns of Midland &
Penetanguishene cannot be held responsible for any
consequences associated to this content.

Visit Ontario.ca/seniors for an additional comprehensive guide of
resources available in Ontario, under Programs and Services for Seniors
in Ontario.
