Helping Hands for Seniors in Tri-Cities.
What is Helping Hands for Seniors TC?
Helping Hands for Seniors TC (Helping Hands) is a collaborative project among the Richland Seniors Association (RSA), the RSA Intercommunity Planning Group (IPG), and Active4Life (A4L) created in response to the COVID- 19 crisis.
How Does Helping Hands Work?
There are four elements of the project:
❖ Identification to Helping Hands of isolated seniors through referrals from organizations or individuals, or direct contact by those seniors;
❖ Determination through the referral process of the needs of these seniors;
❖ Creation and maintenance of an inventory of food and essentials to fulfill needs as they are determined;
❖ Delivery of the needed items to the isolated seniors in a safe manner.
