Join Health and Community Services’ Efforts to Support Island Seniors

San Juan County’s Health and Community Services (HCS)  is calling for volunteers to support senior services on Lopez, Orcas and  San Juan Islands.

HCS Senior Services provides and supports  programs and services that assist seniors in remaining independent and  in their own homes for as long as possible. Senior Services is

also a  resource for those who provide care to parents, older family members, or  neighbors. Available services include Meals on Wheels, including both  home-delivered meals for

eligible seniors and onsite community meals at  the local senior centers, as well as individual case coordination,  family caregiver support, and transportation assistance.

on Wheels program and transportation services rely on volunteer  assistance. If you are interested in contributing to your community by  becoming a Meals on Wheels driver, helping

in the kitchen, or providing  transportation to off-island medical appointments, please contact the  Senior Services Specialist on your island for more information:
