VOLUNTEER

Volunteers are a vital part of making any organization thrive. Without volunteers, it would be impossible to circulate information and serve the seniors of South West Kansas.

Senior Health Insurance Counseling for Kansas (SHICK)  

Trained SHICK volunteers offer individual assistance in explaining Medicare, Supplemental Insurance policies and Medicaid benefits so consumers can make an informed choice. The Area Agency recruits a network of volunteer counselors to assist older Kansans in our region solving health insurance problems.  

Nutrition

SWKAAA is always seeking volunteers to help with meal delivery, setting tables, serving food, or even using your creativity to bring new activities, entertainment, or programing to our nutrition sites. Our meal programs are more than a meal, they keep our seniors active and healthy

Hands Up

Advocacy

One of our core missions at the Area Agency on Aging is to advocate for seniors, and we invite you to join us in making a difference! We're offering exciting opportunities to become a member of our Board or Advisory Council. Every county can have one board member and up to two advisory council members who meet quarterly to discuss key issues. Additionally, the Silver Haired Legislature is looking for one representative per county. By joining these boards, you’ll play a vital role in addressing local concerns and helping the SWKAAA operate smoothly and effectively.
