We’re so glad you’re interested in becoming a DOROT Friendly Visitor. To support you in this new volunteer experience, we’d like to invite you to a one-hour Zoom orientation session where we’ll share about the Friendly Visiting program. Please make sure to sign up below, as this is first step in the onboarding process. After signing up below, you will receive an email instructing you to register through Zoom; please take this step, as registration through Zoom is required in order to attend on the day of the orientation.
As a reminder, Friendly Visiting is an in-person program offered in Manhattan and Westchester, and all Friendly Visitors must be 18 or older. Friendly Visitors visit older adults in their homes on a weekly or monthly basis. If you can’t manage an in-person commitment, we have many other volunteer opportunities that you can do from home. To learn more about these remote opportunities, or if you are interested in a more general overview of DOROT programs, register for a General Orientation. If you have already attended a General Orientation and are interested in moving forward as a Friendly Visitor, there is no need to attend the Friendly Visiting Orientation, instead, please reach out to us at friendlyvisiting@dorotusa.org.
Any questions? For Friendly Visiting in Manhattan, feel free to contact us at friendlyvisiting@dorotusa.org and for Friendly Visiting in Westchester, please contact us at infowestchester@dorotusa.org for more information. For general volunteer inquires, contact us at volunteers@dorotusa.org.
We look forward to seeing you soon!
