Anne Waller of Citizen Support Services and Co-Chair of BSIS Welcomes you
I am very fortunate to work in Burnaby; voted the best run City by McLeans Magazine in 2009. Citizen Support Services has been a member of Burnaby Seniors' Interagency Society (BSIS) since the early 90's. What started as a small group of non-commercial organizations has grown into a Society of 30 + members, including businesses, all specializing in helping seniors in Burnaby.
The Society members work together to find solutions to challenges that seniors are facing in their daily lives. We offer a variety of services to assist seniors in living independently and enjoying a better quality of life.
By offering our Healthy Aging Series of free workshops and our annual Seniors' Resource Fair, we are able to educate both seniors' and their family members in topics of interest and also the many services available to seniors' living in Burnaby. We see ourselves assisting families with the transitions that happen as we age.
As Co-Chair of BSIS for a number of years, I can see the advantage of working as a team for a common goal - to help seniors live a more productive, healthy and enjoyable life. If you are searching for answers for yourself or a loved one, please check out the Members page. Also, if you would like to learn more about issues written by our members, regarding aging, please visit our "Members Blog" page and we hope that you will subscribe to it as well.
"There is a fountain of youth: it is your mind, your talents, the creativity you bring to your life and the lives of people you love. When you learn to tap this source, you will truly have defeated age." ― Sophia Loren
