The Bradford/Sullivan/Susquehanna/Tioga Area Agency on Aging recently held an in-service training session for Senior Companion volunteers from the Senior Companion Program. Two of the Senior Companions, Sharon English and Geraldine Learn, serve several seniors 60 or older in Tioga County helping them to remain independent. Senior Companions provide a friendly visit and companionship for lonely, isolated or disabled seniors. The Senior Companion Program is recruiting for Senior Companion volunteers age 55 and older who enjoy working with other seniors and are income eligible to serve as companions for those most vulnerable seniors in the region.
