The Morris County Office on Aging, Disabilities and Community Programming has partnered
with Jersey Cares to coordinate volunteers who will go grocery shopping for older Morris
County residents as well as those with disabilities. The program will keep persons most
vulnerable to COVID-19 out of supermarkets and other food market places. Eligible
participants must be either over age 60 or be disabled and between ages 18 - 59 and in
need of shopping assistance.
