MONEY MANAGEMENT PROGRAM
Senior Spectrum, in conjunction with AARP and Maine’s Office of Elder Services, has begun offering AARP’s Money Management Program to qualifying seniors in Brunswick, Harpswell, and Sagadahoc County.
The program’s goal is to prolong independent living for individuals who are at risk of losing their independence due to an inability to manage their financial affairs.
Through this program, the Local Coordinator will match a Volunteer Bill Payer with a senior who needs some help keeping track of monthly bills. This volunteer will visit the client once or twice a month and will provide checkbook balancing and bill paying services. The client will retain control of her/his finances at all times. Some clients are served on a short term basis, but the majority are served on a long-term basis.
