Independent Aging and Living Support Services Program

Southern Rhode Island Volunteers

At the Independent Aging and Living Support Services Program in Newport, RI, we are dedicated to enhancing the lives of seniors in Washington County, East and West Greenwich, and Jamestown through essential support services. Our mission focuses on providing reliable transportation to healthcare appointments and grocery stores, as well as efficient food delivery and Meals on Wheels programs to ensure no one faces food insecurity alone. We also offer visitation services for isolated seniors, fostering connections and reducing loneliness in our community. Additionally, our program assists with limited minor home repairs, yard clean-up, and snow removal for those aged 90 and above without family support. Partnering with the RI State Division of Elderly Affairs, we help engage senior volunteers in the Senior Companion Program, allowing them to contribute meaningfully while receiving a stipend for their dedicated service. We invite local seniors to reach out for support and join us in building a caring community.
