Guest Speaker
Marietta Manoni, Mobility Director for RideConnect. Ride Connect is a not for- profit program of Family Services of Westchester and is dedicated to finding the fastest and most cost-effective transportation options to meet the needs of older adults, age 60+, in southern Putnam and Westchester Counties. Yorktown is one of Ride Connect’s largest area of need and Marietta is looking for volunteer drivers. Volunteers can sign up to provide as little as one ride a month.
