Become a Visiting Advocate for older adults living in nursing homes or assisted living communities!

Calendar Get Connected Icon ongoing
Time 8am to 8pm

Description

Are you someone who can talk to anyone? Do you enjoy meeting and learning about new people? Looking for a flexible volunteer opportunity? Have an interest in bettering the quality of life of residents of nursing homes or assisted living communities?

Consider becoming a Volunteer Advocate in the Fox Cities, Oshkosh, Green Bay, or the surrounding areas! 

Volunteer Advocates visit a local nursing home or assisted living community, have friendly conversations with residents, and encourage and support residents to express their views and wishes!

This volunteer opportunity is flexible. Visits are made on a regular basis (as often as once per week) anytime between the hours of 8am-8pm, any day of the week, with no advanced scheduling. A visit typically lasts between 1-3 hours depending on the preference of the volunteer. Completion of a background check is required and training is provided.

No experience volunteering in a long term care setting? That's ok! Ongoing support, mentoring, and education is provided.

Our next new volunteer training is Tuesday, August 25th in Appleton!

Please reach out with questions or to apply!
