Empower home health aides and social service workers to encourage seniors to rent a room to another senior.

Consider empowering librarians and social service workers to help seniors find matches through a digital billboard equivalent. Also provide sample roommate housing agreements and moving kits (change of address for medicaid/social security) Here's an example from SoCal of a non-profit doing this work
