Two new programs from MO rides: Carpool and Driving Retirement

Below is a news release from Deanna Dothage who is the Mobility coordinator for the Boonslick Regoinal Planning Commission.

 

CARPOOL
Boonslick Regional Planning Commission is pleased to announce the MO RIDES Carpool Program. Visit MO RIDES website, www.morides.org/carpool. MO RIDES serves Franklin, Lincoln, Montgomery, St. Charles and Warren Counties.
To utilize the carpool service, a person will need to provide us with their information to be matched with other carpoolers. When MO RIDES finds a match with similar starting points and destinations, the rider/driver will be contacted for permission to be connected with the other potential carpooler(s). Register with MO RIDES for FREE carpool service by completing your carpool profile either online or by filling in our carpool form. You will then be included in a data base pending a match with another carpooler. You do not have to own a car to participate. We will strive to find non drivers rides with owner/drivers, as well as owner/drivers with owner/drivers.
If you do not have access to MO RIDES website, you may email ddothage@boonslick.org or call 636-359-4656 and a form will be provided for you to complete. You will also need to Mail a RECORD CHECK that you obtain from the Sheriff's Department in the county of your residence to Deana Tucker Dothage, MO RIDES, PO Box 429, Warrenton, MO 63383.
 
DRIVING RETIREMENT
Click on the DRIVING RETIREMENT LINK www.morides.org/driving-retirement/ This new page provides information to consider when one must retire from driving. Most people adapt well to driving retirement and are satisfied with their decision within months of stopping, especially if they have planned ahead for the change. Make MO RIDES a part of your plan.
This mobility management program is funded by: New Freedom Grant (FTA-5317) from the Missouri Department of Transportation
Missouri Developmental Disabilities Council under provisions of PL 106-402, the Developmental Disabilities Assistance and Bill of Rights Act.
