About Us

Vision

• Through its long standing tradition of excellence in evidence-based treatment, case management and research, COPA will improve the quality of life for older adults with addictions, concurrent disorders and problem gambling issues.

Mission

• COPA is a community organization providing holistic, innovative and non- judgmental addictions, concurrent disorders and problem gambling service to older persons and the community focusing on our three pillars:
  • Outreach – responsive service to clients in the community, in their own homes, shelters, boarding homes, long term care homes or on the street.
  • Harm Reduction - it is not necessary for clients to acknowledge addiction problems or reach complete abstinence in order for meaningful change to take place.
  • Independence – focus on empowerment, self-determination and the best possible quality of life.
