Telephone reassurance

[Larry Erlandson]

Please let me know if you have a telephone reassurance program.  We are seeking information about costs for a grant application.  Thanks

We have a telephone reassurance program.  We have volunteers that are matched with people that want to be called.  Outside of copying we really haven't had any expense. This is coordinated with our local TRAID through the sheriff department so they do the background checks of the volunteers.

We do telephone reassurance, phone a buddy.  We do all criminal background checks ourselves.  But for the most part all of our volunteers are criminal background checked so this program doesn't cost hardly anything.

Our program is also run by volunteers. It's been a great comfort to families who are far away to know that someone is checking in each morning.
