The Elders Program seeks to increase the social, physical and emotional well-being of seniors while helping them become independent. KOM does this by offering individual case management and group activities to refugees who are 60+.
The Elders Program Coordinator conducts home visits with seniors to assess their needs. The coordinator assists seniors with maintaining public benefits and Social Security Income (SSI), arranging interpreters and transportation, obtaining health insurance benefits, and more.
The Elders Program Coordinator also plans group activities for seniors to keep them active and involved in the community. In the past, the Elders Program has done group exercise activities, health classes, visited state parks, and attended community resource fairs.
