NeighborWorks NEPA was funded to increase and expand their Aging in Place services, including Small Home Repair, volunteer services, and social isolation prevention in Lackawanna, Luzerne and Wayne counties. The Aging in Place program also implemented a new program, Smart Home Technology for Older Adult Homeowners supplying older adults with different smart home devices to increase their safety and independence to allow them to continue residing in their homes and communities longer. To increase mobility and ability to provide volunteer services to older adults, a cargo van was purchased through the funds acquired by The AllOne Foundation and co-branded with the foundation.
