This is yahoo group is for Tri-City seniors who would like to receive information through the Community Ambassador Program for Seniors (CAPS).

Located in Fremont, CA, CAPS is a nationally recognized, locally implemented program of the City of Fremont Human Services, funded by a two year grant (2007-09) from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation.

The Community Ambassador Program for Seniors, through its volunteer community ambassadors, will build capacity to serve seniors in their own communities, in their own language, within their own cultural norms, and will do so where seniors live, worship, socialize, and learn. The Ambassadors serve as a bridge between the formal network of social services and faith based and cultural communities. Visit each partner's page in the "Links" section to learn more about them.

As of March, 2009, 88 ambassadors have been trained.

Pathways to Positive Aging
The CAPS program is part of the larger Robert Wood Johnson strategic grant funded project, Pathways to Positive Aging, a project of the City of Fremont Human Services and Tri-City Elder Coalition, whose goal is to empower seniors to understand, choose, and access culturally enriched, affordable services and opportunities that enhance their quality of life.
