SENIORS
Veterans Services Every day, current and former service members and their families deal with the complex issues that accompany military life. Oftentimes, the most difficult problem is not knowing where to turn when you need help. Courage to Call is a free, confidential, veteran-staffed 24/7 helpline dedicated to assisting active duty military personnel, veterans, reservists, guard members, and their families, regardless of discharge status, through information, guidance, and referrals. Call 211 option 4 for assistance. City of El Cajon Veterans Coalition is to advise city staff on issues facing active duty or retired military families, select a veteran of the year, consult on the veteran’s memorial, and educate our community. Applications to join the coalition are made available at www.elcajon.gov during the month of January each calendar year. Contact Adam Tronerud at (619) 441-1750 for more details. El Cajon Police Department Volunteer Programs offers volunteer opportunities in the R.S.V.P (Retired Senior Volunteer Program) and YANA (You Are Not Alone) programs. Applications are available at the El Cajon Police Department’s Information Desk, located at 100 Civic Center Way, El Cajon, CA 92020. Completed applications for RSVP and YANA can be mailed or dropped off in person to the Volunteer Coordinator. If you are interested in becoming a volunteer, please contact the El Cajon Police Department’s Volunteer Coordinator at (619) 579-3354.
