Can We Help?

Jean George is our Linwood Community Resource Advocate. Her position is funded through an ELCA grant. There are many programs in the Fox Cities that help older adults live safely, independently and age in place. Jean’s role is to help older adults overcome the barriers in accessing these programs. Barriers that many face include:

Lack of knowledge of the programs available

Lack of computer skills or transportation allowing access to these resources

Hearing, visual and mobility impairments

No family member or close friend to help navigate programs

Programs and information that Jean can help you access include:

transportation, housing and energy assistance, scam prevention, fall prevention, foot care, veteran services, advance care planning, food banks and meal delivery services, medical equipment loans, representative payee options, medication delivery, Medicare education and access to support groups for grief, visual and hearing impairments.

Jean can help identify your needs, access your barriers to meeting those needs with as little stress as possible. This program is meant to help you, your older church members, AND your family, friends, and neighbors. For more information, please contact Jean at resource.fvlhomes@gmail.com or 920-734-7225 Ext 7.

Resolutions!

It’s a tradition for many people to make resolutions for the New Year, but the fact remains that most resolutions are made without much thought and usually

thrown to the wayside. There is a better approach that we can take as we face the coming year. Join us and our Wellness Coordinator Yon on Thursday, January 16th at 2 pm for some ideas on how to set attainable goals for 2025.
