Description

Provide mentoring, translation services, and therapies to children aged 0-18

Through the Senior Companion Program, people aged 60 and older provide assistance and friendship to the frail elderly. Senior Companions serve the elderly in varying capacities. Senior Companions usually serve two to four clients on a weekly basis, serving 20 hours a week. If you are interested in being a Senior Companion, you must meet income eligibility requirements, and for your time you will receive a modest, tax-free stipend to offset the cost of volunteering. Other benefits include reimbursement for transportation, some meals during service, an annual physical, and accident and liability insurance while on duty. Pre-Service and monthly training sessions provided.
