Center Still Closed

TWIN VALLEY TAX CLINIC
AARP is hard at work figuring out how to offer the usual tax clinic in the middle of the Covid-19 pandemic. There are only 2 sure things. The first is that it will look very different this year from what you experienced in the past. The second is that it will start later than it did in the past as we work to make it happen.
The goal is to offer the usual tax preparation services while keeping everyone as safe as possible. Which means minimizing the time we spend face to face.
How do we do this? What we don’t do is to sit with you for 45 minutes while we prepare and review your tax returns.
What do we do?
Option 1. You bring you tax documents to an appointment at Twin Valley Senior Center and leave them with the tax volunteer. We prepare your tax return from your documents, and from the information you give us over the phone if we need to call you. You then come to Twin Valley Senior Center for a short appointment where we give you a printed copy of your return and return your tax documents, answer any questions, and electronically file your return if you authorize us to do so.
Option 2. If you are uncomfortable with leaving your tax documents with the tax volunteer, we will have the ability to scan your tax documents when you come for your appointment at Twin Valley Senior Center and to return them to you to take with you. We prepare your tax return using the scanned documents, and from the information you give us over the phone if we need to call you. You then come to Twin Valley Senior Center for a short appointment where we give you a printed copy of your return, answer any questions, and electronically file your return if you authorize us to do so.
Our goal is to have things set up so we can start the last week in February.
When We Are Open
What We Do
TVSC is at the core of Meals on Wheels in our service area with a nutritious meal, companionship and a watchful eye on the health and safety of our seniors. For those who have trouble getting around, we bring the service to you. For those who can still venture out into their communities, we serve in gathering places, such as Twin Valley Senior Center. We are hoping that 2021 will bring normalcy to the center. In the meantime, we are keeping our eyes on the elderly population and asking you to join us in our mission to help them maintain their independence and wellness.

Nutritious Meals
Adequate nutrition is necessary for health, functionality and the ability to remain independent. Healthy eating can increase mental acuity, resistance to illness and disease, energy levels, immune system strength, recuperation speed and the ability to manage chronic health problems. Meals on Wheels ensures that seniors have access to adequate nutrition even when family support, mobility and resources are lacking.
Friendly Visit
For many, the trusted Meals on Wheels volunteer or staff member who shows up every day with a meal and a smile is the only person they see or speak with all day. This special delivery is the reason to get up in the morning, something to look forward to, and a reminder to take good care of themselves. Seniors able to travel to congregate meal sites also receive valuable social interaction and companionship. We can all attest that a meal can be more than the food on the plate, but also the company across the table.
Safety Check
Along with the inevitable impacts of aging come the increased risks of medical emergencies, falls and other accidents. The safety check that accompanies each meal delivery ensures that, in the case of an emergency or problem, medics will be called, families will be notified and our seniors will not be forgotten
