How Papa helps

Papa Love image
A Friend
Papa Pals love a card game, a walk down memory lane, or a new recipe.
Transportation
Papa Pals can help give you a ride to a doctor’s appointment, do tasks, or pick up groceries.
Everyday Tasks
Papa Pals can help with light household tasks and yard work, pets, get meals ready, and more. Papa Pals can also play with the kids, make snacks, or help get homework done*.  
Devices
Papa Pals can help you set up and learn how to use phones, computers, and social media to stay in touch with loved ones, enjoy games, and more.
Grocery Door Drop
Food right to your front door. Papa Pals will shop for and deliver the groceries you order (costs not included).
Virtual Visits
We make it easy to have a Papa Pal, no matter where you are. A companion and support are just a phone call or video away.

*Children must be over the age of 3 and at least one parent or guardian is required to be present.

Ask Us Anything

How many hours of time do I get with my Papa Pal? Is there a cost?
Community Care Plan gives you 60 hours of Papa Pal service hours every year. There is no cost to you.

Papa Pals do a lot, but they don’t do it all. They can help with companionship, household tasks, transportation, errands, meal prep, computers, phones, pet help, and more.

They don’t help with things that may need more special medical care, like bathing, giving medicines, dressing, toileting (including diaper changing), brushing teeth, physical feeding, and ambulating.

You can trust our Papa Pals. They follow COVID-19 safety guidelines, they have criminal background checks (federal and state), a motor vehicle record check, and take part in ongoing training and education.

Yes! You can ask for your “favorite” Papa Pal for every visit. If they are available at your planned time, they will be there!

Yes! As long as you and your pet are okay with it. You can go together too!

To sign up or if you change your mind and no longer want to be in the Papa program, please call Papa at 1-855-224-3436.
