New Eldercare Locator Brochure!

Home

Volunteering is a great way to help others but it’s also good for you. Studies show that volunteering can help reduce depression, lessen chronic pain and give your brain a boost. And there’s no better time than now to explore the volunteer opportunities available in your community, which is why the Eldercare Locator’s 2022 Home for the Holidays campaign focuses on encouraging older adults to volunteer.

The campaign includes a brochure, Ready to Volunteer… Now What? A Guide for Older Adults on Giving Back, that can help older adults learn about the benefits of volunteering, types of volunteer opportunities and how to find a local or virtual volunteer opportunity. This national public education campaign aims to ensure that older adults, families and caregivers are aware of some of the ways many much-needed services are now provided—and how the Eldercare Locator can help you find them. Learn more about the campaign.

Are you thinking about volunteering? Use the Eldercare Locator to find a local Area Agency on Aging, Title VI Native American Aging Program or other organization that can help you get started on your volunteering journey.
