Home Visits

Home Visit volunteers make one-on-one friendly visits weekly to a Senior Services Inc. participant. These visits occur 2-4 times a month, and encourage meaningful and consistent engagement that isolated seniors may not have otherwise. These visits foster connectedness with the past through sharing personal history, the present through companionship, and the future through something to look forward to.
