Existing law requires the Director of Health Care Services to, among other things, maintain or enter into contracts directly with nonprofit caregiver resource centers to provide direct services to caregivers of cognitively impaired adults, as defined, throughout the state. Under existing law, by executive order, CaliforniaVolunteers is established in the office of the Governor and is charged with overseeing programs and initiatives for community service and volunteerism. This bill would establish, until July, 1, 2026, a pilot program, administered by the Chief Service Officer of CaliforniaVolunteers, under which nonprofit entities known as Care Corps Grantees that would contract with the officer would select, train, and place volunteers to provide care to persons who are at least 65 years of age, who have Alzheimer's disease or related dementia, and who have difficulty with self-care or living independently. The bill would establish selection criteria for prospective volunteers and specified training requirements. The bill would require the Care Corps Grantees to provide a stipend and an educational award, as specified, to volunteers. The bill would require the officer to appoint an advisory council and would require the officer and the advisory council to evaluate the program, as specified.
