Friendly Visiting is a meaningful program for older adults and volunteers alike. Our social work team brings expertise to matching adult volunteers with Westchester County residents 60+ interested in weekly or monthly visiting. Location and scheduling are also considerations in the matching process. Bonds are created over sharing life experiences, hobbies, interests, ideas, opinions, and more.
Visits take place in the home of the older adult. Social workers offer ongoing support to volunteers.
