Volunteer: Make Friendly Phone Calls to Seniors in your Community (Waukesha County)We are putting out a call for volunteers to join the Friendly Phone Call program! This program pairs an Eras client with a volunteer to have regular conversations by phone. The Friendly Phone Call program is a longer-term commitment (12+ weeks) and seeks to decrease social isolation and reduce the feelings of loneliness in our clients. How does it work? The volunteer will complete an application, be screened, and matched with a client(s). The volunteer calls the client to introduce themselves and, along with the client, decides when and how often they should connect (usually between 2-4 times a month, with calls typically lasting 20 minutes or less- but may be longer if time permits). After each call, the volunteer lets Eras know whether they were able to connect with the client (through a quick email, phone call, or online survey). If a client asks for a ride, assistance, resources, or has questions or concerns, volunteers should refer them to our main line. Eras staff will follow up on any additional needs that the client has. Repeat!To sign up to volunteer for this or other opportunities, please visit our website: https://eras.org/volunteer/become-a-volunteer/ or call us at 414-488-6931 and we can assist you over the phone.
