We're providing transportation to medical services for seniors in need. Volunteers are greatly needed! If you can volunteer some of your time to be a driver for this program, please contact the STP Program Coordinator at 615/794-9055.

Background: A number of different not-for-profit and volunteer agencies provide in-home services to elderly Williamson County residents to assist them in remaining independent for as long as possible. Through multi-agency meetings it became very apparent that these same individuals had a critical need for transportation services. These services needed to reach across the county, be available on-call, and provide a volunteer who would assist seniors going to and from medical visits.

Our goal is to provide the same kind of thoughful attention a senior would receive from his or her own family members. A network of volunteer drivers in different areas of the County, are coordinated by the STP Program Coordinator. These drivers will pick up the client from their home, drive them to their appointment, and stay with them until they are safely back in their home.

STP is a partnership between Graceworks Ministries, Cool Springs Christian Ministries, Living@Home of Senior Citizens Inc., College Grove Senior Enrichment Center, The Martin Center and United Way of Williamson County.
