    Description

    Combat agoraphobia and befriend an isloated adult

    Do you want to connect with someone socially isolated to bring community home to them? A disabled woman is looking to connect with weekly 1 hour visits and potentially walks around the apartment if she is comfortable. Your hour a week could really change her perspective on life and vastly improve her quailty of living.

    Background on Volunteer Services:

    Volunteer Services, a program of Catholic Community Services, assists low-income elders and persons living with disabilities. Volunteers can provide assistance with light housecleaning, transportation, grocery shopping, home repair, and yard care. With a little help from volunteers, clients can continue to live independently in their homes.

    Due to the vulnerable population we serve, volunteers must complete an application form, pass a Washington State Patrol check and attend an orientation.
