The Friendly Visitor Program is committed to supporting Orange County residents in need by matching as many as possible with local volunteers.

For neighbors in need, the following are examples of services that may be provided:
Transportation to local appointments
Help with grocery shopping
Home visits
Chatting on the phone
Clerical assistance

Volunteers:

Will be thoroughly trained
Receive a background check at no charge
Will be insured while volunteering

For assistance or to volunteer, please leave a message at (845) 341-1173. Calls will be returned.

There is no charge for this service.
Services are offered to senior adults, and adults with disabilities.
