Our Vision: a Canada where every man feels valued and engaged in his community, experiencing purpose, belonging, and well-being in his aging journey.
Our Mission: to grow and strengthen the Men’s Shed movement in Canada, and we do this by: supporting the creation of new Sheds; connecting existing Sheds for peer learning and mentoring; providing education programs and communications opportunities; working with provincial Men’s Shed associations; and engaging in research and other partnerships.
