East Haven Seeks Volunteer Drivers for Seniors

From the Town of East Haven:

The Town of East Haven is still looking for volunteer drivers in order to provide transportation for seniors for the purpose of providing rides for their medical appointments.

The conversion van, with wheelchair lift and handicapped access, is staffed by volunteers, with scheduling to be handled by the East Haven Senior Center. The amount of time the van can be on the road will depend on the number of drivers available. The van will be available for appointments both within the town and the surrounding
communities.

Drivers of the van for this purpose will need to have a Connecticut Motor Vehicle driver’s license with an F endorsement (taxi, livery, service bus, motor coach) or a Connecticut CDL with both P and S endorsements. Anyone with a current non-commercial driver’s license may apply to the Department of Motor Vehicles for this proper endorsement.

Those interested in volunteering must contact Mayor Maturo's office at (203) 468-3204. Individuals seeking further information must contact Frank Gentilesco, assistant director of administration and management, via (203) 468-3205 or eh.gentilesco@att.net.
