NYSC

A Trusted Community Hub for Older Adults

North York Seniors Centre (NYSC) provides a broad spectrum of programs and services that help older adults remain independent, socially connected, and supported at every stage of aging.

Our compassionate staff and volunteers deliver innovative, high-quality programming designed to promote active living, wellbeing, and meaningful community connections—for seniors and their families.

NYSC: A Place to Belong. Support You Can Trust.

Discover how North York Seniors Centre supports older adults to stay active, connected, and living well—at home and in the community.

Volunteers Are the Heart of NYSC

See how NYSC volunteers help reduce loneliness and bring comfort, dignity, and joy to older adults in our community.

Growing Older Shouldn’t Mean Growing Lonely

For many seniors in our community, finding a reason to smile can be challenging. Nearly 1.4 million elderly Canadians—about one quarter of all seniors—experience loneliness, with 30% feeling lonely regularly, and those over 80 feeling lonely most of the time.
At North York Seniors Centre, we exist to change that. We help seniors:
Stay active and socially connected
Make choices about how and where they live
Live safely and independently
Feel supported—knowing someone is just a phone call away
