Who We Are

TRAIL of Johnson County is an IRC Sec. 501(c)(3) nonprofit, membership-based organization whose mission is to help older adults successfully age in place by providing Tools and Resources for Active Independent Living.

What We Do

TRAIL volunteers are essential to our success. Volunteers assist our members in a variety of important ways, all of which are helping older Johnson County adults age more securely in their own homes:

  • Home services, such as simple repairs, errands, and outdoor chores
  • Transportation to and from appointments, meetings, or shopping
  • Medical advocacy, i.e., accompanying members to doctor’s appointments, asking questions, and recording instructions
  • The Phone Buddy program for members who desire contact with TRAIL
  • Helping to organize and staff social, cultural, and educational programming to help TRAIL members make new friends, explore their interests, and remain active and engaged in our community
  • Providing organizational leadership by serving on our Board of Directors or on one of our Board committees.
