Volunteer: Driver's Training Program: Practice Driver CompanionsThe Treetops Drivers' Training program is in need of volunteers who would be willing to share their vehicle and their time with members of the program as they do their practice driving hours. Volunteers can be men or women (we will take the members' comfort into account and require a 3rd passenger, as desired), and must be at least 21 years old. It is often a hardship for program members to find someone to ride along for their practice drives, so we would love to have a long line-up of volunteers who can commit to a minimum of 2 hours per week for 10 weeks at a time. This would be the same 2 hours each week, for consistency and ease of scheduling. You will receive a short training and ongoing support and communication from both Marla (Driver's Training Program Manager) and Andrew (head of Cox-McKenzie Driving School). The program will begin again in April/May. Feel free to reach out to me (maryanne@treetopscollective.org) if you have any questions before registering to volunteer in this capacity!
