Hon. Michael de Jong, Q.C.-Minister of Finance

The BC Care Providers Association (BCCPA) has represented private and non-profit community care providers for over 30 years. We have over 130 residential care, home support and assisted living members across B.C. Members represent over one-third of all funded long term care beds in B.C. – caring for over 25,000 seniors annually and creating more than 18,000 direct and indirect jobs across the province.

To represent the interests of our members, the BCCPA is preparing a submission to the Select Standing Committee on Finance and Government Services for the provincial budget to be released in February 2015.  The submission will build off the 2014 budget submission as well as other BCCPA documents such as the Seniors Care for a Change report released in July 2014.  As a valued member we welcome any input you are able to provide.

“We are pleased collect input from our members for the 2015 Budget Submission,” says Michael Kary, Director of Policy and Research. “Year after year our members offer insight into the issues and obstacles faced by care providers across the province. With your input, we can continue our tradition of advocacy and working with government to provide service providers with the resources needed to offer the best care available.”
