About Silver Mitten
A Michigan guide for families helping an aging parent.
Silver Mitten is run by Kirk Vantine, owner of KV Web Works in Dexter, Michigan. It puts the answers Michigan families need in one place: care options, Medicare, Medicaid, money, legal papers, and local help.
Kirk's story goes here. Why he started Silver Mitten, in his own words, with a photo.
Why the name
Michiganders hold up a hand to show where they live. The mitten is home, and silver is for the silver years. The heart in the palm is for the people doing the caring.
What Silver Mitten is, and isn't
- It's an independent guide. It is not a government agency or part of any state program.
- It doesn't sell insurance or Medicare plans.
- It gives general information. For decisions about your family, talk to a professional. See the disclaimer.
How we keep it accurate
