▶️ Helping Central Oregon seniors fight social isolation

Caring Connections is a program that helps local seniors combat the negative effects of social isolation.

We spoke with Program Manager Jamie Lacore from the Council on Aging of Central Oregon to talk about the program and how we can help make a difference in a senior’s life.
