Deaf and Hard of Hearing Seniors Outreach (DHHSO) Program
Condition Specific Support, Seniors Services, Social / Recreational, and Transportation
Provided by Wavefront Centre for Communication Accessibility
Through our Better At Home Program, we identify isolated seniors and offer vital outreach services, including companionship, home visits, non-emergency transportation, facilitated shopping trips, and other essential support. These services enable seniors to live independently and stay connected to their communities.
DHHSO volunteers (who are active Deaf and Hard of Hearing seniors) play a key role in delivering these services. Each volunteer undergoes a thorough screening and training process to ensure the highest level of support. The program also offers a variety of workshops as well as a social meals program that helps seniors connect over shared meals throughout the year.
