Adults & Seniors

The Project supports seniors (65 and older) to live independently in their own homes. Capital City Volunteers’ (CCV) Outreach and Direct Volunteer Services restrict their service to lower income seniors (less than $35,000/year). JBCP Outreach and Better at Home services are not limited by income.
