Are you looking for ways to get involved in the community?
Do you enjoy spending time with seniors?
The CSSW Interfaith Volunteer Caregiver Program is looking for volunteers to help with in-home respite and companionship services. These individuals provide major support for our participants and program. They reach out to families that are caring for a loved one and need a break, or to home-bound seniors who would like someone to talk to and spend time with.
If you are at least 18 years of age or older, and able to commit just 2-4 hours one day a week, please contact us today! After the interview and orientation on the St. Joseph Mercy campus, we will pair you with someone located within ten miles of your home.
To learn more or get started, please contact Allison Ranusch at 734.712.5730 or email aranusch@csswashtenaw.org.
