Council of Advisors
The Office of the Seniors Advocate has a Council of Advisors (COA) that provides valuable insight into seniors’ issues in B.C. This group of engaged and connected seniors represents each of the province’s five health authority regions and comes from a wide range of educational, professional and socio-economic backgrounds. The COA serves as both a sounding board for the Seniors Advocate as well as a conduit to the Advocate for information and concerns from all regions of the province.
The authority for this council is found in the Seniors Advocate Act section 6, “Power to Establish Advisory Council”.
