Dear Phil,
Thank you for the article on Home Repair for
Seniors from the Sacramento Bee and for the interest
of Lodi resident Bob Cook. You letter was read at
the January meeting of the Senior Citizens
Commission.
The Area Agency on Aging has programs in place
for Handyman services that covers the entire county.
They also fund the Carreers 50+ program. These
programs pay minimum wages for Seniors to do small
home repairs and domestic services. The Senior
Information and Referral Center can access these
programs when necessary.
The Commission felt the City would not want to
be involved in qualifying individuals for this
program secondary to the liability.
The Kiwanis Club of Lodi is going to do a one
day Home Repair Service for the elderly and this
Commission will be working with them on this
project. If this project is successful the Senior
Commission may want to look into volunteer programs
for the future.
Thank you again for your interest and support.
Sincerely,
Trella B. Areida
Lodi Senior Citizens Commission Chairperson
