What is the Senior Volunteer Programs channel on Sandwich?
nb/seniorvolprog is Sandwich's curated channel for senior volunteer programs — part of the Senior Programs & Day Services category. It collects resources, posts, related providers, and community discussion specifically about senior volunteer programs for families caring for aging parents.
Who should follow nb/seniorvolprog?
Anyone in the sandwich generation researching senior volunteer programs for an aging parent or loved one. The channel is free to read and join. It's most useful when you're at the start of planning, comparing options, or trying to make a decision.
When should I start planning for aging parents?
Follow the 40-70 Rule: when you turn 40 or your parent turns 70, whichever comes first, start the conversation. Early planning means more options, better decisions, and far less crisis management later.
