This is an excellent opportunity for community members to volunteer to serve as Home Visitors and provide an "extra pair of eyes and ears" for Senior and Adult Services staff. Home visitors check clients' well being, provide companionship, and assist with shopping and appointments, recreation, community resources, and other activities. volunteers visit each client from 1-4 hours each week.
