Membership Team - Team Leader: Nedda Massar
Membership Team - Team Leader: Nedda Massar

Team Members - Diana Loja, Gorette Crowe, Tina Whitely

The Membership Team helps community residents find out about the benefits of ITAV membership, helps enroll anyone who would like to join, and invites new members to participate in new-member initiatives. In addition, the Membership Team provides reminders to members whose membership is expiring and helps them to renew.


Why would you want to become a member of ITAV?  Because you want to remain in your own home as you get older.  ITAV, for a $25 a year fee, will provide you with many services:  You may ask for rides.  You may ask for "helping hands" to come to fix small nuisances, or you may just want to receive a friendly visit. We do not duplicate services that other organizations provide. We cooperate with what's already working in our villages.


Of course, should you have questions, you may call ITAV at 914-222-5116 or send an email to info@itav10591.org.  Thank you!

Service Coordinator Team - Team Leader: Linda DeBellis
Service Coordinator Team - Team Leader: Linda DeBellis
Team Members - all Service Coordinators


When you call the ITAV office or receive a call from the office, you are talking to a volunteer  ITAV "Service Coordinator".  Service Coordinators not only answer the ITAV phone and take your service request, they are also responsible for matching you with the appropriate volunteer, coordinating schedules and facilitating all aspects of the service. They have an advanced computer and communications system and have access to all your previous contacts and any specific needs you may have. A Service Coordinator is available to answer the ITAV phone Monday - Friday for eight hours a day (9:00 am-5:00 pm-excluding holidays). As Service Coordinators rotate their schedule, it may seem that you get a different person every time you call. 

The Service Coordinator Team leader is responsible for the initial training, support of, and ongoing training of Service Coordinators. The Team leader meets regularly with the Service Coordinators, gets feedback about procedures that need updating, and provides ongoing support. All Service Coordinators are ITAV members


Of course, should you have questions, you may call ITAV at 914-222-5116 or send an email to info@itav10591.org.  Thank you!

In Home Services Team - Team Leaders: Alice Blood

Prior to receiving In-Home services, the Team Leaders of ITAV In-Home Services will call to arrange a visit in your home to learn of your expectations and needs.  We will ask how would  a volunteer best meet your needs at your home (apartment, condo, single home, multi family), where is the best location to park, do you have a pet?  (some volunteers are allergic).  The visit is to ensure the highest possible member satisfaction.   



Of course, should you have questions, you may call ITAV at 914-222-5116 or send an email to info@itav10591.org.  Thank you!
