Senior Charity Care Foundation (SCCF) is looking for inspired individuals who want to serve the community and give back to some of our greatest generations. As an AmeriCorps member of SCCF, you will obtain real-world experience by serving Utah’s seniors obtaining critical healthcare needs.

In the state of Utah, over 200,000 of our seniors live in poverty. Unable to afford basic health, dental and vision costs, many suffer in silence. Some have little to no family support and make due with minimal and insufficient public assistance.

Founded in 2011, SCCF has stepped in to help fill this gap. Our Mobile Dental Clinics and Mobile Vision Clinics serve dozens of care facilities from Weber County down to Utah County and surrounding areas. Treating hundreds of seniors on a donated or heavily subsidized basis, we are looking to expand the breadth and quality of our services - including a new Audiology program.

As an AmeriCorps member of SCCF, you will have a unique opportunity to be on the front line of service, expanding and developing our efforts to offer direct, targeted services to seniors in need. Duties will include:

• Promoting SCCF programs through senior outreach and recruitment
• Assisting seniors with the application process to ensure successful enrollment
• Generating operation plans and hosting mobile clinics
• Provide follow-up with seniors to ensure services were successful
• Training and management of community volunteers
• Other responsibilities as assigned

SCCF provides both full-time and half-time AmeriCorps service positions. A full-time position requires a commitment of 1700 service hours to be completed by September 30, 2020. A stipend of $1,166.00 per month is given to cover living expenses. A half-time position requires a commitment of 900 service hours to be completed by September 30, 2020. A stipend of $583.00 per month is given to cover living expenses. SCCF is proud to offer the Eli Segal AmeriCorps Education Award to all members for tuition, student loans and education-related expenses upon successful completion of this commitment.
