Age-Friendly Tucson Plan

neighborhood associations to recognize social isolation. • City of Tucson will provide neighborhood associations with a list of Partner Stations for the Senior Companion Program. The Senior Companion Program is a program operated by Pima Council on Aging and designed by the Corporation for National & Community Service, providing homebound older adults with companionship vists to reduce social isolation. • Tucson Fire’s TC-3 Team will identify and provide contact information for TC-3 enrolled community members in need of increased social interaction.

Goal C Improve outreach and increase culturally appropriate services throughout the City of Tucson. Recommendation 1 Facilitate an annual resource event that pulls together service providers throughout the City. • Partner with the ELDER Alliance to plan the event. • Facilitate the event in March or November.
