Senior's Policy Handbook: a guide for developing and evaluating policies and programs for seniors

Prepared by the Federal/Provincial/Territorial Committee of Officials for the Federal/Provincial/Territorial Ministers Responsible for Seniors and published in June, 2009, this handbook is for people who analyze, develop or implement policies, programs, services or legislation that directly or indirectly affect seniors.

Its purpose is to help policy analysts and program planners consider the perspective of
seniors, the diversity of the seniors’ population, and the needs and issues facing seniors today and in the future.

The Seniors’ Policy Handbook is an updated version of the 1998 publication called Principles of the National Framework on Aging: A Policy Guide. The National Framework on Aging was launched in 1994 by the Committee of Officials for the Federal/Provincial/Territorial Ministers Responsible for Seniors.
