ReServe Elder Services, a New York organization that seeks to match older adult workers with charities that need their services, is seeking to expand its work in additional cities, according to The Wall Street Journal.
The group, which has placed about 1,000 New Yorkers age 50 and up in part-time roles at more than 200 charities and government agencies, is also seeking to streamline its matchmaking process, starting accelerated training programs that educate groups of 10 to 20 retirees at a time for specific assignments.
