Many seniors in our community experience isolation and loneliness. Our Friendly Visitor Volunteers explore common interests, share experiences, and build connections with their senior pair.
The goals of the Friendly Visitor Program are:
- To alleviate isolation and loneliness by providing a consistent and meaningful connection.
- Activate social skills and maintain social relationships.
- Be a Friend, Become a Friend.
Friendly Visitor Volunteers are trained on ways to connect and communicate with seniors, and are provided with ongoing support and supervision.
