Round About Roane is a volunteer assisted, senior-friendly transportation program for individuals age 60 and older who need transportation to essential trips within Roane County and medical trips only outside of the county.
Volunteers will pick up enrolled riders, transport them to a destination, stay with the rider to offer assistance, and return the rider home. Volunteers will have the ability to self-assign rides utilizing a web-based software program or smart phone app. Mileage reimbursement may be available to volunteer drivers.
Volunteer drivers must complete an agency background check, and attend all orientations and training prior to being assigned a ride. Training will be scheduled throughout the year to capture newly enrolled volunteers.
For additional information and to request a volunteer driver application please contact Mid-East Community Action Agency Senior Services Department at 865-354-0450, ext. 228.
