HOW SAFE IS YOUR HOME? Are you prepared for a local emergency or disaster? To address safety and preparedness, The Salvation Army has two programs that are geared to the older adult or homebound disabled person, that increased their ability to remain in home and feel secure during a crisis. THE FIRST is in Middlesex County, The Salvation Army manages the Retired Seniors Volunteer Program (RSVP). Through RSVP, hundreds of older adults are placed in programs where they can volunteer their time and talents in various ways. read more here THE SECOND has to do with Preparing Together. Have you ever thought about what you would do if New Jersey experienced the same floods that the Midwest recently got? Preparing Together is a collaborative endeavor with the US Department of Homeland Security where volunteers are trained, then partnered with older adults and homebound disabled to develop a personalized preparedness plan. read more here For further information on either of these programs, please contact Ms. Brenda Beavers, MSW, ACSW at 908-851-8211. |
