CHORE BRIDGES
Small household repairs can help keep you safe and living in your home
Did you know that falling is the leading cause of emergency room visits by older adults?
In many cases, a simple home improvement or repair - such as better lighting or a grab bar, can keep you or your loved one safe. CHORE is a resource to people living in Rockland County who are 60 years of age or older, or a person living with a disability, regardless of age or income status. CHORE helps people to maintain the independence of living at home by providing free minor household repairs and home improvements that make living at home safe.
SERVICES
CHORE utilizes the services of volunteers to facilitate minor home repairs that do not require a licensed professional.
Contributions are voluntary and confidential and are used to expand the services for which they are received. No one will be denied services because of an inability or unwillingness to contribute. Suggested contributions level equal to the cost of the service for participants who self-disclose income at or above 185% of Federal Poverty Level. Services are funded in part by the Administration on Aging, New York State Office for the Aging and the Rockland County Office for the Aging.
