Wellness Connection Centre

Unison’s Wellness Connection Centre aims to support the mental, emotional, and spiritual health of older adults. Mental health is vital to full body health and a healthy mind will set up an individual for success in their daily life.  

We are constantly improving our services, creating, and assisting with a myriad of supports on a daily and weekly basis. Our programming includes group support as well as innovative peer connections and caregiver programming. As we grow our programs, we will offer individual care, guidance, and support for the robust well-being of our older adults.
