Friendly Visiting is part of Faith in Action of Marathon County's support system to keep seniors socially connected to the community. Social exchange is a vital link to mental health.
The Friendly Visitor assists seniors in maintaining their identity, passing along their valuable knowledge and experience, and diminishes the growing problem of isolationism and loneliness.
Enjoy developing a new friendship.
You would be assigned one or more seniors to call regularly. How many seniors you would like to connect with is up to you. You will then call them on a schedule that works for you and them (once a week, twice a week, once a month, etc.)
