Prompted by a question from Eric, a 33 year-old volunteer in Ethos’ Friendly Visitor Program, about how others view the relationships with the seniors they serve, Miriam Michelson, the organization’s volunteer program manager organized what we hope to the first of several networking and mentoring events.

Volunteers met at Canary Square in Jamaica Plain this week for drinks, appetizers and great conversation about their experiences.
