The Foster Grandparents and Senior Companion Programs were estab- lished to provide low-income elderly adults a useful way to serve their communities in their retirement years and to give them the satisfaction that comes from being needed. Foster Grandparents work with children who have special needs in schools, facilities for the disabled, day care centers, psychiatric institutions, child abuse crises centers, and juvenile detention centers. Senior Companions go into the homes of the frail elderly or home- bound adults and assist them with activities of daily living that allow them to live independently. They also work in nursing homes or hospitals with persons who will be leaving and going back to their homes. For information on corporate support contact:
