The goal of the Renfrew-Collingwood Better at Home Program is to support seniors in Renfrew-Collingwood to live independently in their homes and stay connected to their communities by providing non-medical support services.

The light housekeeping and companionship program provide affordable, regularly scheduled cleaning services to seniors in the Renfrew-Collingwood community and offers a friendly visit with each appointment to socially isolated clients to increase connection and offset the adverse effects of loneliness.
