Providing transportation in Winnebago county region, enabling people to be more independent, healthier, and less socially isolated.
ADVOCAP’s volunteer transportation program provides rides for participants who are referred to us through Winnebago County ADRC and Veteran Services. Drivers provide rides utilizing their personal vehicles and are reimbursed for their mileage.
Those interested in becoming Transportation Volunteers must be age 55 or over, live in Winnebago County, have a valid license, insurance, registration, and a reliable car. All drivers must pass a background check and receive training on program rules & regulations, and driver etiquette.
Drivers receive requests for rides and choose which rides they will provide. Drivers are reimbursed for mileage monthly.
To apply to become a Volunteer Transportation Driver, contact Kari Tschech to discuss the program and receive an application.
