Retired & Senior Volunteer Program

The Retired & Senior Volunteer Program, RSVP, provides older Americans the opportunity to apply their life experience to meeting community needs.

RSVP volunteers serve a diverse range of non-profit organizations, public agencies, and faith-based groups. Among other activities, they mentor youth, organize neighborhood watch programs, and lend their business skills to community groups that provide critical social services.

Last year alone, over 480,000 senior volunteers served an average of four hours per week to over 65,000 local organizations.

To help meet the President's goal of involving Americans in Homeland Security issues, the Corporation for National and Community Service unveiled the nation's first federal grants to involve citizen volunteers.

The Western Area VI Agency on Aging was awarded one of ten grants in the entire nation to serve Ravalli, Mineral, The Flathead Reservation and Lake County.

We currently have offices in Hamilton and Polson Montana.
