Seniors In Service

The senior companion program supports independence through basic social support. Services provided to seniors 60 years and older who live independently but have limited access to outside resources.

The seniors in service respite voucher program assists live-in caregivers of someone over the age of 60 who is unsafe to be left alone. These caregivers can be of any age. Their loved one, the care receiver, has the need for assistai1ce in multiple areas of daily living. The caregiver can apply for a 1,000 voucher that enables them to hire care for that loved one - offering the caregiver a much-needed break. This break is so important because the stress of caregiving can often lead to serious health and emotional consequences.
