Older Adult Advisory Table

2024 Call for Older Adult Advisory Table (OAAT) volunteers will be open from August 21 to September 11

The Older Adult Advisory Table (OAAT) provides first-hand experience and insight on living as an older adult, caregiver, or someone looking to the future in Calgary. This expertise informs and supports strategic and action planning by the Age-Friendly Calgary Steering Committee, projects, and helps to shape City programs and services.

OAAT is composed of 14 members as determined through a selection process. This process is structured to ensure that a range of voices, backgrounds and experiences have been included in the table.
