Senior Companion volunteers provide basic social support to other seniors in Northern Nevada. This is a meaningful program that adds quality to the lives of those 60 years and older, living independently, but with limited social support. Volunteers visit, take clients shopping, to doctor's appointments, etc (limitations are based on volunteer interests and abilities).
