WHEELCHAIR ASSISTED TRANSPORTATION PROGRAM
Our Wheelchair Assisted Transportation (WAT) Program is our newest program. Four days a week, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, 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.
