About Partners In Care:

Partners In Care, a 501c3 community nonprofit, was founded to help older adults remain independent in their own homes. The MGCE grant values the organization's innovative volunteer engagement strategies. The group engages more than 2,500 volunteer members to help each other in a formalized program based on reciprocity. Using the service-exchange model, people contribute their time and talents to the 'community pool' to accomplish what needs to be done. Every person is encouraged to contribute what they can and to become part of the solution. In this way, assets already in the community are identified and utilized, accomplishing more than in traditional models. Participants enjoy parity, rather than charity. A network of care is developed and older adults are empowered to remain independent. The model is being replicated in numerous communities seeking to support aging populations.

PIC was founded in 1993 by three women with degrees in gerontology and health care administration who wanted to make a difference in their own community. They believed that every person has gifts and talents that the community needs and they developed a program for people to use their time and talents to help each other. The service-exchange / time-banking program helps people -- wherever they are along the continuum of life -- to remain independent in their own homes and in the community. Starting with a dozen initial participants, PIC has grown to include 2,500 members and is going strong!
