Faith in Action Program

Monday, June 9th, 2008

The Faith in Action mission is to provide non-medical services to people in need through interfaith volunteers. The focus of the program is to integrate faith and health to help maintain a high quality of independent life for those with long-term health needs, especially people who are elderly or have disabilities.

We provide volunteers with training and match them with others who could use their help. Volunteer caregivers provide simple, basic assistance such as transportation to and from medical appointments. The local Harvey area Faith in Action volunteers have provided over 25,000 miles of medical transportation for people who may not have otherwise received needed services in the last two years.

Our Faith in Action program is overseen by the Central Dakota Ministerial Association.

Senior Companions Program

Monday, June 9th, 2008

Senior Companions are healthy older adults who help other adults live independently. Senior Companions provide support to family caregivers. They assist with grocery shopping and other daily tasks necessary to maintaining independence. They offer senior citizens encouragement to remain active, provide a helping hand to make sure they take their medications, a watchful eye to notice when extra care is needed and a friendship that often lasts a lifetime.

Without the help of Senior Companions, many older adults would not be able to continue living at home and would need more expensive, less personal care.

Senior Companions are over 60 years of age, can volunteer 20 hours a week, have limited income and enjoy helping their neighbors.

Wells County Mentoring

Monday, June 9th, 2008

The mission of Wells Co. Mentoring is to strengthen our young people by providng them with caring, positive relationships (one of the eight components of the Sources of Strength).

Mentoring is simple. It is caring, being yourself and spending consistent time (about an hour a week) with a young person. It’s so simple that it is making a difference, one life at a time.

Mentors are not there to “fix” their youth or solve their problems, but to simply be a friend. Become involved in one of the most effective prevention efforts and help today’s youth become tomorrow’s leaders - Be a Mentor!
