We are seeking individuals who are friendly, empathic and great listeners to serve as volunteers for our Compassionate Contact Corps Friendly Telephone Visitor Program. Volunteers will be paired with a Veteran and will call them once a week to provide a friendly, listening ear. For those Veterans who are lonely or experiencing social isolation, these phone calls can truly make a positive impact on their lives.
