Annual Award Recognizes Those Who Make a Powerful Difference in their Community

AARP has helped more than 19 million people 50 and older become safer, better drivers over the years.

The AARP Alabama Driver Safety Program currently has an opening for the State Coordinator position. This is the highest volunteer position in the program for the state, and requires both a commitment to the policies and direction of the AARP Driver Safety Program, and the ability to use effective leadership skills to advance the program at the state level.

AARP Alabama is working with 2-1-1 Connects South Central Alabama, a program of HandsOn River Region, to find virtual (at-home) volunteers who will assist callers looking for transportation to COVID-19 vaccination sites and scheduling vaccinations. Volunteers may also be asked to help callers navigate resources for basic needs in their community.
