How to Become a Member
​
Neighborhood Falmouth is part of a robust national “Village” movement created to help older individuals stay in their own homes by providing needed nonmedical help and services. Studies show that Seniors who are members of villages like Neighborhood Falmouth are happier, healthier, even less likely to take a tumble.
​
Using a group of friendly and energetic volunteers, Neighborhood Falmouth can drive you to doctors’ appointments, take you or help you with grocery shopping, put your trash out each week, stop by for a visit, and much more. All of our volunteers are interviewed in person and are required to pass a Massachusetts CORI (Criminal Offender Record Information) background check.
​
It's easy to become a member: Falmouth residents age 50 or older who pay a membership fee can join the organization and receive services. The first step is to contact the Neighborhood Falmouth office. There are several easy ways to contact us.
