Find Connection, Combat Loneliness, Help a Neighbor

A Phone Call Can Make a Difference

Department of Human Services/Westport Center for Senior Activities

A new Town program connecting community members to one another through simple phone calls.  The program encourages connection and combats loneliness as individuals of all ages and stages create a network of social phone calls offering a warm connection between caring neighbors.

Westport's "Hello, Neighbor" Program has expanded to include contactless Grocery Assistance for seniors! 

Westport seniors wishing for assistance with basic grocery runs now have a reliable and safe delivery option with a caring neighbor's help. No apps or membership fees, just simple acts of kindness to help when needed!

Volunteer shoppers undergo a background check before being matched with a screened senior resident requesting assistance. 

To volunteer, request assistance, or learn more, please go to www.westportct.gov/helloneighbor or call Paulina Przybysz at (203) 341-5097
