The Retired Senior Volunteer Program (RSVP) matches the personal interests and skills of older Americans (55 and older) with opportunities to help solve community problems. RSVP volunteers choose how and where they want to serve – from a few hours each month to over 40 hours a week. RSVP makes it easy for older adults to find the types of volunteer service opportunities that appeal to them.

RSVP volunteers provide hundreds of community services. They tutor children in reading and math, help get children immunized, model parenting skills to teen parents, participate in neighborhood watch programs, plan community gardens, deliver meals, help with cultural arts programs, offer disaster relief to victims of natural disasters, drive folks to medical appointments, and help numerous community organizations operate more efficiently.

If you are interested in becoming a RSVP volunteer, please contact a COAD Regional Coordinator for your county from the list below.
