This puts them at increased risk of accelerated ageing, frailty, social isolation, and premature need for long-term care (LTC). The report stresses the need for a proactive, preventative health strategy for today\u2019s Veterans, and to build on existing programs by enhancing mental health and caregiver supports.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"http:\/\/qa.yourwebsitebuild.com\/nia\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/November-8-2024_Addressing-the-Coming-of-Age-and-Its-Related-Complexities-Among-Canadas-Veterans_Report.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Download Report<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The National Institute on Ageing (NIA) in partnership with the Canadian Institute for Military and Veterans Health Research (CIMVHR) and the Canadian Frailty Network (CFN) has released a groundbreaking new report calling for the urgent development of a comprehensive strategy to support Canada\u2019s ageing Veterans.
