Community Partnerships
Deltassist not only provides a wide array of counselling, seniors and community services to the residents of Delta, we also collaborate with many Delta community agencies and companies to provide other much needed services that would not be possible without these partnerships.
In addition, Deltassist contributes to many Delta committees that address larger social issues through promoting awareness and engaging in activities that bring the community of Delta together to find solutions.
