Volunteers
needed
for
seniors
Volunteer training sessions to help indi­
viduals get in touch with the needs of senior
citizens in their communities are being held
throughout Clackamas County during March
and April.
According to Kathy Ellis, Community
Outreach Coordinator, volunteers are needed
to contact senior citizens on a one-to-one
basis and help them provide for basic needs.
"We have two main concerns," said Ellis,
"To keep seniors healthy, independent and
in their own homes and to provide health
and homemaker services in order to do this."
She would like to set up community
volunteer programs to put people who would
be willing to devote one day a week or
month in touch with senior citizens who
need help with things like shopping and
housecleaning.
"I am interested in getting together with
people who arê -interested in setting up
things within their communities," said Ellis.
"I want to get away from the huge bureau­
cracy of rules and regulations and get things
on a personal basis."
She feels that seniors in rural areas do not
have the access to community services that
urban dwellers do and that community ori­
ented services need to be established for
these people.
The training sessions will help community
members to find problems within their own
communities and to provide solutions for
these problems.
The sessions will be held in the following
communities:
—Canby, Monday, April 4, at the Canby
Fire Hall, 230 S. Grant, at 10 a.m.
—Milwaukie, Wednesday, April 6, at the
Milwaukie Loaves and Fishes, 2416 S.E.
Lake Rd. at 10 a.m.
—Molalla, Tuesday, April 26, at ‘he Mo­
lalla Loaves and Fishes, 211 E. Main, at
10 a.m.
