Programs Manager for Together Today and Community Caring

Job Description

Shepherd’s Center of Hamilton County provides programs to promote and support independent lifestyles for seniors in Hamilton County. Through our programs, seniors can connect with services or to other individuals that will help enrich independent lifestyles. Our Together Today Program provides an excellent opportunity for older adults to get together on a regular basis, make new friends, and have a wonderful time socializing together. The goal of the program is to prevent isolation and create community. Community Caring connects volunteers with home-bound, isolated, and/or financially fragile seniors 55+ to help support their independence. Individual volunteers can help with house cleaning, light home maintenance, transportation, and friendly visitation. Group volunteers can assist with yard work, home repairs, care package delivery and much more. Volunteers allow seniors to live independently with dignity in their own homes for as long as safely possible.
