WHEELCHAIR ASSISTED TRANSPORTATION PROGRAM

Our Wheelchair Assisted Transportation (WAT) Program is our newest program. Four days a week, Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday, our van runs, driven by our two drivers, Jeff and Matt. Our van always has a volunteer that rides with our driver, to assist with boarding and for companionship. If you are interested in becoming a van volunteer, or need WAT services, please reach out to our office.

“Becoming homebound has been tough but LVC and your volunteers have been such a positive experience.  I have met great people and being able to go out for coffee and the newspaper has made such a difference in my life.  I want you to know how much it has meant to me.”
