Information

Join us for PCOA’s NOSH & KNOW series: Your go-to destination for insightful events designed to help you age well and stay connected. Each session offers expert insights, interactive discussions, and delicious snacks! Engaging Events to Help You Age Well!

Neighbors Helping Neighbors For many older adults, staying in their own homes is essential. It’s where they feel comfortable, connected to their community, and able to maintain their independence. But sometimes, a little extra help is needed to make that possible. That’s where the Neighbors Care Alliance (NCA) steps in. Join us at the Nosh and Know: Neighbors Helping Neighbors event on Thursday, January 9th from 1:00 p.m. – 2:00 p.m. to discover the ways volunteers are making a real difference in their neighborhoods. Whether it’s providing transportation, delivering meals, offering companionship, or lending a hand with daily tasks, volunteers help older adults remain in their homes and living safely and independently for as long as possible. You’ll also have the opportunity to find out how you can join existing neighborhood volunteer groups or start your own. The flexibility of the NCA program allows you to decide how best to support the older adults in your community, based on the needs and resources of your neighborhood. Volunteering with NCA isn’t just about offering a service - it’s about building stronger, more connected communities. You don’t have to be a young person to help! Many of our volunteers are older adults themselves, demonstrating that no matter your age, you can make a difference.
