It’s a New Year, and a new volunteer opportunity is waiting for you!
The Barnstable County SHINE program is seeking volunteers for 2024! We screen, train, and certify all volunteers as Medicare experts, so you don’t need a background in health insurance to get involved.
Whether it’s conducting one-on-one counseling, speaking to groups, or providing office support, SHINE can find a role that’s just right for you. All you need is integrity, a willingness to learn, and a desire to help others.
Navigating Medicare can be mystifying. If you’ve traveled the long journey of Medicare enrollment, consider helping others in your community as they enroll in Medicare for the first time, review plan options, or troubleshoot problems.
Become a SHINE volunteer!
You know your community best. That’s why we want your help to support your friends and neighbors as they enroll in Medicare for the first time, review plan options, or troubleshoot problems.
SHINE team members are highly trained and certified to assist people in obtaining coverage through options such as Original Medicare (Parts A & B), Medicare Advantage (Part C), Medicare Prescription Drug Coverage (Part D), and Medicare Supplement (Medigap).
Please call the Barnstable County SHINE program manager, Kristina Whiton-O’Brien at 508-375-6762, and choose option 2 to sign up!
