The Safe Seniors AmeriCorps Program focuses on enhancing personal preparedness for homebound seniors and people with disabilities, in order to allow them to remain living safely and independently.

AmeriCorps members dedicate to a year of intensive service at a nonprofit organization, working to address critical community needs. It's a great opportunity for folks who are interested in launching a career in service. In return, they receive valuable training and experience, a living stipend, healthcare and childcare assistance, and an education award at the end of service.

We are required to note that this is not an employment opportunity - it is a service opportunity, and members are not considered employees of the organizations at which they serve

Program dates are September 25th, 2017 - July 31st, 2018.
