Enhancing Black Seniors Health and Well-being in York Region “Legacy in Action”
2026-06-20 11:00 - 14:00 | 7 Station road, Unionville, 7 Station Lane,, Markham, Ontario, L3R 1R4, Canada
From Labour to Legacy
Many Black seniors have spent much of their working lives unseen, undervalued, or limited within workplaces that did not fully recognize their contributions. Retirement offers something different: freedom to define one’s impact on their own terms.
This is the time to shift from labour to legacy:

From working for others to pouring into the community
From being managed to mentoring
From surviving systems to shaping futures

Their stories hold lessons about perseverance, dignity, identity, and courage—lessons the younger generation deeply needs.
