The Ontario Association of Non-Profit Homes and Services for Seniors (OANHSS) is a recognized leader in long term care, seniors' housing and community services, and a strong champion of the not-for-profit delivery model.

OANHSS was founded in 1919 and member organizations currently operate over 25,000 long term care beds, 5,000 seniors' housing units, and serve over 100,000 seniors per year.

We are the leading source of information on issues relating to and impacting on the delivery of care and services to seniors across the province. We firmly believe that a properly funded long term care system can produce cost-savings for the health care sector, and contribute greatly to the strengthening of the system as a whole.
