About Trusted Riders

The Trusted Riders program is a national program being piloted by the Georgia Southern University Center for Social Gerontology in the College of Behavioral and Social Sciences. Trusted Riders is a service program that has already been successfully implemented by many organizations all across the nation.

This program offers non-emergency medical transportation for older and disabled adults in our community. Volunteers take on the role of chaperones, emphasizing door-to-door service and ensuring security and comfort every step of the way. Medical appointments can range in type from routine doctor's business to reoccurring standard medical related procedures.
