Tenderloin seniors find help through outreach project
In San Francisco the Tenderloin Senior Outreach Project helps 8000 elderly residents of cheap hotels leave rooms for coffee, blood pressure checks, and food. Volunteers run weekly hotel lobbies mini markets and safehouses, while police beat cops build ties with residents. The program boosts social ties, reduces fear of crime, and addresses hunger among seniors who often lack phones and face isolation.
