Help create economic justice for older adults in Onondaga County!

Our AmeriCorps VISTA Member will design a pilot program for the Greater Syracuse Aging Services Coalition, to increase older adults’ enrollment in federal benefits and other income-stretching programs. This is a great opportunity for a creative and collaborative project manager.

The Greater Syracuse Aging Services Coalition works to increase social connectedness and advance racial equity and economic justice for older adults in Onondaga County. Together with aging service providers, community members, and anyone who cares about aging, we develop initiatives that change the lives of people most impacted by ageism, racism, and economic inequality. The Greater Syracuse Aging Services Coalition is convened by InterFaith Works of Central New York. Learn more about the Greater Syracuse Aging Services Coalition.
