REFER A NEIGHBOR
Know Someone Who Could Benefit From Neighbors Network?
Maybe they’d enjoy meeting new people. Maybe a ride or an occasional helping hand would make life a little easier. Or maybe they’re simply thinking ahead and want to build a trusted network for the future.
If someone in your life could benefit from Neighbors Network, we’d love to connect with them.
Sometimes It Starts With an Introduction.
You might be a friend, family member, healthcare professional, community organization, faith leader, or simply someone who knows an older adult who would enjoy being part of the Network.
You can refer someone who:
- Is age 55 or older
- Lives within the Neighbors Network service area
- Wants to remain independent in their own home
- Would enjoy more social connection or activities
- Could benefit from occasional Volunteer support
- Wants to build a support network for the future
They don’t have to be experiencing a problem or actively need assistance to be a good fit.
