Intensive Home-Based Outreach

Volunteer Program
Syntero’s Older Adults Volunteer Program makes a valuable contribution to the agency’s older adults clients. One-on-one volunteers are recruited from the community and matched with a Syntero Older Adult client. Volunteers serve as friendly visitors, drivers, errand runners, friendly callers, and also help with occasional chores. Volunteers are carefully screened and then matched with an appropriate client. Volunteers serve on a regular or as-needed basis.
