Jewish Seniors Alliance is seeking volunteers 18 and over to take a 15 hour training program and then be matched with a senior to go out for walks or visit them in their homes for an an hour a week. The training is being offered at no cost and at the end of the training you will get a certificate.
Due to COVID restrictions many more seniors became more isolated, lonely and depressed and would greatly benefit from contact with a volunteer.
The training program is very thorough and will help enhance ones learning and education about seniors issues such as grief and loss, isolation and loneliness, cognitive impairment and mental and physical health age related issues.
