Volunteer: Transportation Assistance

Transportation is a huge need for our community of Adults with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities. Many of our residents rely on public transport which can be very overwhelming or unsafe for them when traveling alone or at night, and utilizing a ride sharing service can get very expensive. Our Place Nashville is in search of volunteers who are willing to be available to assist with short rides for our friends. This could include a ride to one of our community events, to work, or just to the store. 

 

When you sign up and are approved as a transportation assistant, you will be notified when a particular resident has a particular transportation need. If you are able to help with that need, you can let us know and we will communicate with you and the resident to confirm the scheduling. During this ride, you may get to know one of our residents and provide encouragement and support for them during their day. 

 

Volunteers must have valid drivers license and a clean driving history, as well as access to a vehicle.
