Therapeutic Activation Program for Seniors
The Therapeutic Activation Program for Seniors (TAPS) at WEGCSS, funded by United Way British Columbia, supports older adults (50+) who may face challenges connecting socially on their own. TAPS provides a welcoming, inclusive space where participants can learn, socialize, and thrive.
The program offers recreational, educational, and social activities designed to promote personal growth, engagement, and well-being. Activities are tailored to a variety of mobility, cognitive, and emotional needs, with a holistic, strengths-based, and person-centered approach. Transportation is available to ensure participants can attend safely and easily.
Weekly sessions (pre-registration required, seating limited Tuesday–Thursday):
- Tuesdays – New Denver at Knox Hall
- Wednesdays – Slocan at Slocan Legion
- Thursdays – Passmore Hall
Each session includes:
- Healthy meals
- Gentle exercise
- Engaging activities and workshops
- Community outings throughout the year
Fridays feature a relaxed Social Hub session focused on connection, conversation, and fun. Sessions include healthy snacks and engaging social activities/games, but the emphasis is on building community and fostering meaningful connections. Fridays are flexible: a small one-time registration applies, drop-ins are welcome, and there is no capacity limit.
We would like to thank our generous partners, funders and donors for all their support.
