How does Kid's to Senior's Korner provide outreach?
A team of community professionals (law enforcement, nurse, social worker) visits identified neighborhoods throughout Reno, Sparks and Washoe County.
The team goes door-to-door 'knocking and talking' to residents. 'Knock and talk' sessions provide information about community resources, safety and health assessments, and suggests referrals to other community services.
Most health and social services are provided free of charge (immunizations might be $16 per shot) on the Saint Mary's Mobile Medical Take Care-A-Van, which is located in the neighborhood where the Kid's to Senior's Korner team is 'knocking and talking'.
