    Description

    Road Warrior for Intermittent Support Needed in Remote Sharon, CT. Declare Your Dedication to a Better Connecticut.

    A road warrior is needed for intermittent transportation support of a person with blindness, in remote Sharon, Connecticut. This role involves two to three trips between October 1st and November. You don't have to do them all, any one of them would be wonderful and helpful. The first is on October 1st from a residence in Sharon to the medical offices on Hospital Road. Leaving the residence approximately 9:45 am and arriving at 10:30, waiting and returning.

    There are two other trips, one on October 13th to New Milford; and one on October 16th within Sharon.

    This individual has had a long journey and due to vision loss is unable to drive. Just one trip would be a gift that would make immeasurable impact!
