Every older adult in Befrienders is unique, with different needs, interests, and abilities. Some enjoy getting out into the community, while others prefer visits in the comfort of their homes, and many like a mix of both. Some seniors appreciate support with errands, while others simply enjoy having meaningful conversations and companionship. It's up to you who you'd like to be matched with.

Permission

Because I will be working with older adults who may be vulnerable, I understand that it will be necessary for Befrienders to conduct a criminal background check. I hereby grant Befrienders and its agent, ClearStar Services, permission to do so. I authorize all law enforcement agencies and references to provide the necessary and relevant information about me to Befrienders and I release them from any and all liability as a result of providing that information. I hereby declare that all of the information provided in this application is complete, true and correct to the best of my knowledge.

A background check currently costs Befrienders $20.00. While not required, a donation to help cover this cost is greatly appreciated. Thank you for being part of this community!
