The Alzheimer Society of Huron County is looking for volunteers interested in becoming volunteer companions for their Just For You: Volunteer Companion Program. This is a one-on-one visiting program for individuals with Alzheimer’s disease or related dementia. Volunteers are matched with a person with the disease and visit once a week, during their preferred time, to provide socialization and meaningful activity to the individual and respite for the caregiver. Volunteers will receive all the necessary training and support for this type of volunteer service. For more information or to become a volunteer companion contact Kirsten at 519-482-1482 (toll free: 1-800-561-5012) or email. You know how much you value your independence. Now you can help others stay independent too!
