At CHSLC, we believe that dignity, independence, and a sense of belonging are essential to quality of life. Every day, our volunteers and staff work together to make this a reality—bringing compassion, dedication, and professionalism to every service we provide. Whether it’s delivering frozen meals, providing a ride to a medical appointment, offering companionship, or giving a caregiver time to rest, we are here to help.

Volunteers truly are the heart and soul of our agency. Our programs thrive because of their commitment and care. You’ll find them driving clients to appointments in another town, sitting beside someone at home to provide company, preparing and serving meals at a dining centre, or offering a reassuring presence to someone facing the end of life. Their impact is profound—not just for the clients they serve, but for the community as a whole.

Our leadership is guided by Executive Director Kate Tysick, whose dedication to community care ensures our programs remain client-focused, responsive, and compassionate. Kate works closely with our staff, board, and volunteers to maintain high-quality services that meet the evolving needs of Lanark County residents.
