Our transportation program is called STARS (Seniors Transportation and Ride Service). STARS features a brand new 12-person, wheelchair accessible, shuttle bus with a professional driver, for seniors who are 60+ and live in Chilliwack. The goal of the program will be to provide safe, reliable transportation, so seniors can attend medical appointments, social outings and grocery shopping, within Chilliwack and Abbotsford. STARS is not considered an essential service. However, in the event that the STARS bus is unavailable and a medical appointment has already been scheduled through the program, we will arrange for a taxi at no additional cost.

The program is funded in-part by the Government of Canada’s Age Well at Home initiative.
