Services:  The American Cancer Society’s Road to Recovery program provides transportation for cancer patients to and from related medical/treatment appointments. Rides are provided by volunteer drivers who donate their time and the use of their personal vehicles.

Access to transportation is a major factor in good cancer treatment. Road to Recovery is offered to cancer patients who have no means of transportation and/or who are too ill to drive themselves.

The American Cancer Society has a vast volunteer network in which individuals can make a difference in the fight against cancer. One way they can make a critical difference is by becoming volunteer drivers for the Road to Recovery program. Volunteer driving requires no special skills or education -- just a safe driving record, some free time, a serviceable vehicle, and the desire to help.

If you or someone you know is interested in becoming a volunteer driver, please contact the American Cancer Society at 1-800-ACS2345.

Healthy Community Coalition

Founded in 1989, Healthy Community Coalition (HCC) is an affiliate of the Franklin Community Health Network with a mission of promoting health and well-being in Franklin County and neighboring towns, including Livermore Falls.

The Franklin Resource Network

The mission of the Franklin Resource Network is to maximize resources in our community, enabling elders, people with disabilities, caregivers, and all residents to easily find information about, and gain access to, services and opportunities to contribute their gifts and talents.

This project is funded, in part, by an Aging and Disability Resource Center grant from the federal Administration on Aging and Center for Medicare and Medicaid services.
