LGBT Wellbeing Check-in Program
In October, my Facebook feed lit up with friends concerned about another friend who had not been heard of in a few weeks. Molly & I volunteered to visit him at his apartment. When we arrived, we were greeted by the superintendant and the police, who informed us he had died. They were looking for contact information. Unfortunately, he had been dead for sometime. That evening I had a chat with a friend Laura and we thought as a community we had failed Scott. It was proposed that we’d encourage seniors who live alone to buddy up and check in on each other for others something more structured would be needed. Fast forward a few months and in partnership with OSPN, The Good Companions, who already had the Telephone Assurance Program (TAP) creates the LGBT Wellbeing Check-in Program. This new program is city wide with no restriction on area. Contact The Good Companions for details.
Below please find program overview as well as the detailed guides for clients and potential recruits.
