Volunteer Services

Seniors•At•Home is the Bay Area's most comprehensive provider of compassionate, quality care to older adults. Our mission is to help older adults live safe, independent lives in their own homes. Volunteers of all ages play a vital role in carrying out this mission.

Palliative Care

Specially trained volunteers are matched with seniors in declining health to provide practical, emotional, and spiritual support at one of life's most difficult times. Volunteers offer presence, companionship, or respite for a family member or friend. (San Francisco, the Peninsula, and Marin County only)

Senior Companions

Compassionate volunteers are carefully matched with you, our senior client, based on location and common interests. You and your volunteer can then coordinate convenient weekly meetings to spend quality time together. Don't miss this opportunity to form a new lasting relationship!

Holiday Visitors

Individuals, families, and groups visit nursing and retirement homes and seniors in their own homes  during the holidays to celebrate Rosh Hashanah, Hanukkah, and Passover with Jewish seniors.

Safe At Home Telephone Reassurance Callers

Volunteer callers provide friendship and a sense of security for seniors through regularly scheduled phone calls.

JFCS RIDES

Volunteers drive seniors to medical appointments and help them with grocery shopping.

JFCS Canine Companions

For seniors who are dog lovers, but may not be able to have their own dog, Canine Corps provides a unique, social opportunity to have a wonderful furry companion visit on a regular basis.

Special Delivery Grocery Program

Volunteers assist seniors who are unable to shop for themselves  by shopping for and delivering groceries weekly. (Marin County only)
