Applications for the 2022/2023 CHATS Snow Removal Program are now closed.

CHATS is a not-for-profit organization that has been providing home and community supports to older adults across York Region and South Simcoe since 1980. The CHATS Snow Removal Program in Vaughan is a paid service that connects individuals to pre-approved service providers – quotes for winter snow clearance services are also provided at this time. The cost for snow clearing is paid for by the homeowner.
