Our mission is to create a safe space to care for and protect seniors 60 and older from neglect, abuse, and fraud—wherever they live or visit.
At Seniors In Distress, we are a volunteer-based nonprofit organization that exists for one reason: to care for and protect seniors from neglect, abuse and fraud. We are not hiring employees to fill seats—we are calling on Advocates to take a stand. Whether you are on staff, in the field, or behind the scenes, your work helps fight mistreatment and restore dignity, protection, and justice for older adults.

An Advocate is someone who refuses to look away. Someone who steps forward when others step back. Whether you are writing policies, creating campaigns, or simply checking in on a senior, your presence becomes a lifeline. At Seniors In Distress, our Advocates come from every background, but they share one purpose: to speak up for those who cannot.
We are building a multigenerational team of protectors and problem-solvers from all walks of life:
Advocacy does not have one face, one age, or one path. We are proud to welcome:

Most human resource roles are about resumes, job descriptions, and checking boxes. Not here. At Seniors In Distress, we do not build teams based on credentials—we build them based on character, compassion, and commitment.
While others ask, “What have you done?” we ask, “What will you do—right now—for seniors who are suffering, isolated, or mistreated?” This is not a typical HR position. This is a Talent Advocate role designed to protect lives, not just fill roles.
At Seniors In Distress, we do not believe in hiring based on resumes, degrees, or past job titles. We believe in hiring heart, vision, and action.
As our Talent Advocate (HR Manager), you will not just manage the hiring, you will be the gatekeeper of our mission. Your role is to find and bring in people who will fight for seniors with more care, urgency, and respect than many people ever receive from their own families.
We are not looking for someone to check boxes and process paperwork. We are looking for a changemaker. Someone who understands that hiring the right people means the difference between seniors being protected or overlooked.
If that is you, skip the traditional cover letter. Instead, tell us:
✅ What you want to do for seniors
✅ How you will build a team that fights for them
✅ Why you believe hiring is a tool for advocacy
This is not just a job—it is a mission.
Let us build something powerful.

Most advocacy roles focus on reports, policies, and passing the baton. Not here. At Seniors In Distress, we do not measure success by paperwork—we measure it by the lives we protect and the dignity we restore.
Instead of waiting for permission or instructions, you will take immediate action—listening closely, stepping in boldly, and staying engaged until real change happens. This role is for those who will not turn away from a senior in need and who believe every moment counts when fighting neglect and abuse.
At Seniors In Distress, we do not look for people to just show up—we look for people who will stand up. Seniors across our communities are suffering, overlooked, or mistreated.
A Seniors Advocate is the one who sees what others miss, says what others will not, and acts when no one else does.
This is not a role for the passive or polite. This is for someone who sees a senior being mistreated and refuses to look away—someone who believes that no elder should suffer in silence, and who is ready to speak boldly, act with urgency, and protect relentlessly, no matter who is watching.
If that is you, skip the formalities. Instead, tell us:
✅ What injustice you are no longer willing to ignore
✅ How you will stand up for seniors facing mistreatment
✅ Why advocacy feels personal to you
This is not a career path—it is a calling.
If you are ready to protect, we are ready to stand with you.

Most organizations build boards by chasing titles, stacking résumés, or filling seats with familiar names. At Seniors In Distress, we do the opposite. We are not interested in prestige or passive presence—we are building a board that will show up, speak out, and act when seniors are in distress. We want leaders who lead with courage, not convenience. This is not about governance from a distance—it is about guardianship up close.
At Seniors In Distress, we do not believe in filling seats with names or titles. We believe in building a board that protects, acts, and leads—a board that shows up when seniors are in distress.
As our Board Development Advocate, you will not simply recruit advisors, you will shape the leadership backbone of our mission. Your role is to help us create a Board of Directors that stands for zero tolerance, compassion, and action.
We are not looking for someone to pull from a Rolodex. We are looking for someone who believes the right board can stop the wrong people from hurting seniors.
If that is you, skip the resume.
Tell us:
✅ What kind of leadership seniors need today
✅ How you would shape a board that speaks truth to power
✅ Why you believe building the right board is your mission
This is not advisory work—it is advocacy at the highest level.
Help us build the leadership our seniors deserve.

Many social media jobs focus heavily on building brands or boosting visibility. Not this one. At Seniors In Distress, social media is a tool to protect the voices that are rarely online but deeply impacted—our seniors. The focus is on reaching their children, caregivers, and communities. This role is not about posting to impress but about exposing injustice, rallying support, and creating a safer world for aging parents everywhere.
While typical social media roles chase metrics, impressions, and “likes,”
at Seniors In Distress, we use our voice to protect those who are too often ignored.
As our Social Media Advocate, your job is not to grow a following—it is to lead a movement. You will turn posts into action, stories into advocacy, and attention into outcomes that protect and care for seniors.
This is not about hashtags and highlight reels. It is about grit, truth, and storytelling that holds the world accountable. If you know how to use your voice to defend someone else’s life, we want you on our team.
Skip the portfolio—we want to know:
✅ What story you want to tell for seniors
✅ How you will make social media serve justice
✅ Why your words will not be ignored
This is not a marketing job.
This is frontline digital advocacy.

Most seniors are not online, but the people who make decisions for them are. From adult children to caregivers to community allies, the digital world shapes how people see and respond to senior mistreatment. That is why our digital media strategy is not built around promotion—it is built around protection.
Many digital media roles focus on clicks, views, or viral trends. Not this one. At Seniors In Distress, digital media is a powerful tool to amplify voices that often go unheard—our seniors and their families.
Your mission is not to chase popularity but to deliver real, meaningful stories and campaigns that protect, inform, and mobilize communities around senior care and protection.
This is not a role for those chasing trends or empty metrics. It is for the dedicated advocate who sees digital media as a lifeline for seniors.
Skip the standard portfolio—we want to hear:
✅ What impact you want to create for seniors through digital media
✅ How you will use digital platforms to serve justice and protection
✅ Why your digital voice will be a beacon, not just background noise
This is not a marketing role.
This is digital advocacy that saves lives.
Seniors In Distress is a volunteer nonprofit powered by people who care deeply about protecting older adults from abuse, neglect, and fraud. Whether you are behind a desk or on the front lines, you are not just giving your time; you are protecting lives.
We understand advocacy must fit real life, which is why we offer:
We believe in training advocates—not just hiring for roles. But we do look for a certain mindset:
We are not the right fit for everyone—and that is intentional. Our mission demands commitment, accountability, and heart. You will struggle here if you always:
If that is not you, welcome. You are exactly who we are here to support.
At Seniors In Distress, support does not begin and end with one direct service, it is layered, ongoing, and personal. From in-home wellness checks to helping family members navigate services, our work is hands-on, heart-first, and built on trust. This is where you come in. As an Advocate, your role will directly strengthen the care we deliver and the safety we fight for.
Here is where your contribution makes a difference:
