Aging Ahead is excited to introduce our Friendly Caller* Program. This new program connects older adults with trained volunteers to receive weekly social telephone calls. The Friendly Caller Program provides regular friendly conversation, ongoing socialization, connection with others, and an opportunity to meet new people. Individuals interested in participating in the program and receiving the weekly calls will be paired with a volunteer and the calls will be made at an agreed upon time. Individuals may also be interested in providing Friendly Calls to others.
If you would like more information about signing up to receive calls, contact Madge Witt at mwitt@agingahead.org or 314-791-1128. If you would like information about being a Friendly Caller Volunteer, contact Lydia Franklin at lfranklin@agingahead.org or call 636-207-4230.
