Senior Peer Mentor Program Are you 50 and older and struggling with mild to moderate depression and/or anxiety? Health problems, reduced mobility, the loss of a loved ones and other stressful events can take a toll on our emotional health, but you do not have to face these struggles alone. You or someone who cares about you can request a Senior Peer Mentor. Senior Peer Mentors are trained volunteers who will assist you using proven strategies for positive change. The service is free and confidential appointments occur over the phone in the privacy of your own home. You will work together, utilizing a workbook model, to identify steps to tackle depression and/or anxiety. Each appointment is approximately one hour per week. The Senior Peer Mentor Program is available to residents of Marion, Polk and Yamhill Counties and is offered by NorthWest Senior & Disability Services.
