Shepherd’s Center of Hamilton County’s Community Caring Program allows seniors to live independently with dignity in their own homes for as long as safely possible by connecting volunteers with home-bound, isolated, and/or financially fragile seniors 55 and over.
Community Caring Volunteers have a passion for giving back to seniors in their communities. All one -on-one volunteers complete an interview, background check and training. Many of our volunteers are 55+ who enjoy helping those in the same life stage. Volunteers must be available to donate a minimum of one hour per month.
Together Today Program
Shepherd’s Center of Hamilton County provides programs to promote and support independent lifestyles for adults 55+ in Hamilton County. Our vision is to be known throughout Hamilton County as a trusted resource for connecting seniors with beneficial programs to support their independence. Through our programs, seniors have the opportunity to connect with services or to other individuals that will help enrich independent lifestyles.
Shepherd’s Center of Hamilton County’s Together Today Program provides an excellent opportunity for older adults to meet on a regular basis, make new friends, and have a wonderful time socializing. Each session begins with light breakfast and social time full of games and catching up with friends. Lunch is provided and is followed by a planned activity or presentation.
Together Today Lead Volunteer serves as the “welcome committee” and welcomes all new members to the group and helps them join activities. The lead volunteer helps keep the group on task and welcomes the sponsors and gets them set up for lunch/activity. The lead volunteer will also be the point of contact for SCHC staff.
