Light Household Chores / Maintainance

Flexible Schedule | Evanston, IL 60201

Changing light bulbs, testing / changing smoke detectors, hanging curtains, pictures, meal preparation. Minor repair work. North Shore Village Network (NSV Network) is the local face of a national movement: a consumer-driven model helping older adults stay in their homes as they age. In communities across the country, independent-minded adults have joined together to form organizations-typically called "Villages"-that help them to realize this goal. Today there are about 200 Villages nationwide, with dozens more on the horizon. NSV Network, founded by Evanston residents, is modeled on one of the most successful of these communities, Boston's Beacon Hill Village. NSV Network has expanded to include the surrounding communities of Chicago, Skokie, Wilmette, Winnetka, Glenview, and Northbrook.
