Would you like to provide social support to your neighbors?
Help lower loneliness in our community through our Friendly Neighbor Program.
We are seeking volunteers to provide social visits to or become a pen pal with community members at risk of social isolation. Visits could include chatting with the community member in their home or assisting them with going to local places such as the library or churches. Visits are based on your availability and comfort level. We attempt to match volunteers with a community member who have similar interests.
