Grandparents as Parents (GAP) -- Summer Camp for Grandchildren
Grandparents acting as parents to their grandchildren need a little extra support. For six to eight weeks during the summer, COA provides free day camp experiences for children being raised by grandparents. When funds are available, COA also assists with providing items such as educational kits to grandchildren.
COA’s Telephone Reassurance program started during the
pandemic in order to check in with isolated seniors, assess or reassess client needs, and provide a listening ear. In a year’s time, COA staff members made more than 20,000 phone calls!
Because of the positive response to this program, we decided to continue calling our clients even after some began to interact in person once again with families, friends, and neighbors.
As donations and grant funds are available, qualified seniors may be eligible for services at no charge or for a modest co-payment.
COA also offers private-pay services.
