Age-Friendly Manitoba Initiative
Age-Friendly Manitoba Initiative
In February 2008, the Age-Friendly Manitoba Initiative (AFMI) was launched. Led by the Manitoba Seniors and Healthy Aging Secretariat, ten communities took the first step towards making their communities more age-friendly for their residents. Today, the AFMI has grown from 10 communities to over 80.
