can also help with other aging issues such as Medicare and Medicaid. Service
coordinators help clients find services in their community.
Coordinators are also available to assist your lodge with the formation of
a volunteer I-CARE Committee, which can help client with supportive services
when no formal services may be obtained. The committees work in conjunction
with their coordinator to serve those in need.

another Mason, wife, or widow is in need of this service please contact the
