TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - Dec. 14, 2015) - The majority of older adults want to live in their own homes for as long as possible but many homes are not designed to meet their changing needs.

Please join us for an informative session with CMHC's key experts to get an in-depth overview of home adaptations and the housing market that help maintain and improve independance.
