Volunteer Description: Northern Dauphin Transportation Service Driver
Location: Van pickup in Elizabethville, PA with routes varying
Time: Service offered Monday - Friday, 8:00 a.m. - 8:00 p.m.
Description: Tri County Community Action (TCCA) creates programming/services to meet the specific needs of residents living in the community. Northern Dauphin County is a beautiful rural area, which unfortunately, is lacking in transportation services. It was this need that inspired the collaboration between TCCA and Dauphin County, to establish the Northern Dauphin Transportation Service (NDTS). The NDTS is driven by volunteers, and takes individuals or families for non-emergency medical appointments, to grocery stores or food banks, and more.
Volunteer drivers are able to choose their own schedule. NDTS is in compliance with CDC and state guidelines on COVID-19 protocols including mask wearing, sanitizing, etc.
Those interested in driving for the Northern Dauphin Transportation Service are required to complete clearances. Applicants will receive State Police and FBI criminal background checks, along with ChildLine clearances at TCCA’s cost. In addition, all drivers will provide TCCA with copies of their driver’s license and proof of insurance and submit a DL-503 Request for Driver Information.
Drivers will have to meet the following criteria:
- Between the ages of 18 and 70
- Ability to work flexible volunteer hours
- No more than two moving violations in the previous two years
- No convictions for a DUI
- No at-fault accidents in the previous two years
- No hit and run or leave the scene of an accident incident

Description
RSVP of the Capital Region, Inc. (Retired and Senior Volunteer Program) is a volunteer-based organization funded by AmeriCorps, the federal agency for national service. We have been serving the Central PA region for almost 50 years. We recruit, train and place volunteers in not-for-profit agencies, schools, government offices, hospitals and senior residences. RSVP passionately promotes seniors as powerful contributors to our neighborhoods and community organizations that desperately need additional human resources.
Volunteers often tap their wealth of experience and wisdom and channel it in new directions. We have a wide variety of volunteer opportunities available. Volunteers mentor and tutor disadvantaged children, respond to natural disasters, deliver meals to seniors, transport seniors to appointments, offer free tax preparation, and more. We help volunteers give back to their communities based on their available time and interests. Volunteers choose how often they serve, where they serve and when they want to serve. There are opportunities for volunteers to serve from a few hours a week up to 40 hours per week. Make giving back your second act and join RSVP today!
