- Seniors need help navigating social service systems like home health aide applications. They need needs assessments that ask what they need and doesn't assume / Social service professionals can't reach people who don't come to senior centers. They often have to rely on community members' kindness for resources they can't use or get.
- What is the solution to the challenge?
- Helps seniors navigate Government systems & bureaucracy, completes applications, has needs assessment that helps seniors figure out what they need & how to get it. Community members that step in to fill those gaps in service get a stipend & support & training to help complete forms, access to social work, and some fun @ homeor community events like going to plays.
