Conversations with Leaders – Exploring Naturally Occurring Retirement Communities (NORCs)

This live virtual event, facilitated by Compassionate Ottawa volunteer Mary Lou Kelley, will feature a conversation with Sue Garvey and Vince DePaul. Together they will discuss the fast-growing pan-Canadian Naturally Occurring Retirement Communities (NORCs) movement and will spotlight Ottawa’s own Ambleside Oasis Program as an exemplary case. Oasis is an older adult-driven model of aging in place originally co-designed with older adults living in a Kingston apartment building, and has now spread to NORCs across Canada. Vince serves as co-Principal Investigator of the Oasis Project, while Sue plays a key role as an active volunteer in the Ottawa Oasis. Following the discussion, there will be time for questions and comments. Register here: https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/9117137964390/WN_adDe8Uh1TV2scpL9s0O65Q
