Be available for assessment and advice when a refugee or immigrant community member is having car trouble. Provide support navigating the purchase process when someone is trying to buy a car.

Help us reduce transportation-related access barriers for refugee and immigrant families! Many families don’t have their drivers licenses or vehicles of their own, and while they often use the bus system, it’s not always the most convenient. Volunteers will drive kids to-and-from tutoring or other youth program activities; provide transportation to families going to special events; and be on a call list should clients need more time-sensitive support such as traveling to a doctor or job interview and dropping off large items at their homes.
