A Note About COVID-19

The Beaverton Committee on Aging recognizes that in this incredibly challenging time, many older adults are particularly impacted by the social, physical, and emotional aspects of COVID-19. Now more than ever it is important to have social connections, resources and support as we navigate this crisis. If you are looking for ways to volunteer or help in our community, resources can be found at: www.co.washington.or.us/HHS/CommunicableDiseases/COVID-19/donations-and-volunteers.cfm.

If you or someone you know is a senior who is housebound and lonely, anxious or depressed due to our current health crisis, two free resources are available to help.
