State Of Wisconsin
The following is a list of Wisconsin private organizations or state agencies that provide grants and funding for community programs. Also, we have listed automated and volunteer based programs that we found in the state of Wisconsin.
DSC provides a Telephone Reassurance phone system that automatically calls elderly households checking to ensure they are OK. DSC also provides individual calling services for home alone children.
There are many communities that provide telephone reassurance programs (both volunteer based or automatic calling programs). These communities also refer to their programs as "Are You OK?"® and RUOK.*
Contact DSC to learn more about our automated phone systems. DSC welcomes the opportunity to discuss our telephone reassurance program and services. Also, if you are a Wisconsin based community and/or organization that provides a Telephone Reassurance program and would like to be listed here, please feel free to contact us.
