What Is JASON?

"Join Senior Service Now!" is a new user-friendly, web based recruitment and matching tool designed specifically for senior service, which can be found at this address www.joinseniorservice.org.

Through this web tool, you will have a new way to help seniors answer the call to service--to direct their interests to you and your volunteer opportunities. JASON will allow you to list and describe the service opportunities your program has available. Potential volunteers can then search for opportunities that interest them. If they express interest in your project, JASON will ntoify you with an e-mail--it's that simple!

This system also provides exciting ideas about how your Senior Corps project can reach potential volunteers on the web.

Why Was JASON Created?

As more seniors get online every day, it's important for senior service to have a presence on the Internet. JASON ensures that any senior looking for a volunteer opportunity will be able to find information about the Senior Corps.

At a State of the Union address, President Bush announced the USA Freedom Corps, and the volume of calls and inquiries about senior service skyrocketed. Many wanted to know how to link up to high-quality opportunities. This increase in interest is a perfect opportunity to use technology to bring those potential volunteers to a Senior Corps project.
