ONLINE REGISTRATION FOR THE RURAL AND HUMAN SERVICES COORDINATED TRANSPORTATION WORKSHOP ON AUGUST 23, 2010 IN MACON NOW AVAILABLE

 

"Rural and Human Services Transportation Coordination" legislation in Georgia passed at the 2010 session of the General Assembly. As in a number of states, it is now required that agencies work together to deliver transportation in a coordinated, efficient manner to all Georgians. As a positive first step towards coordination, The Governor's Office of Highway Safety (through the Strategic Highway Safety Plan and the Older Driver Task Force), the Department of Community Health (through the Georgia Council of Aging), and the Department of Human Services (through the Division of Aging Services) are sponsoring a one-day Rural and Human Services Coordinated Transportation Workshop on Monday, August 23, 2010 at The Methodist Home for Children and Youth in Macon, Georgia. Details and registration can be found here or in the links below.
