The Department for the Aging, in partnership with Citymeals on Wheels, offers a Friendly Visiting Program specifically for older adults age 60 or older who have difficulty leaving their homes.

The program matches older adults with a screened and trained volunteer who will visit them at home on a regular basis.

The older adult and the volunteer will have an opportunity to spend time sharing common interests, ideas, opinions, and experiences.

If you, or someone you know, would like to receive a friendly visitor, you can contact a Case Management Agency, which will help connect older adults with friendly visitors.

Use Site Finder to search for a Case Management Agency. Contact them by phone. If you get the voicemail system, leave a message with your contact information and you'll get a call back.
