Who it's for

To ride you must be 60 or older, live in Banks County, be able to get on and off the van with minimal help, and be a congregate (senior center meal) or wellness client. Reserve with the van driver in advance. Rides depend on scheduling, availability, and funding, and there is a cost-share based on household income. Call the Senior Center at 706-677-3275.
Rides go between home and the Banks County Senior Center for registered congregate or wellness clients, depend on scheduling, availability, and funding, and carry an income-based cost-share, so this shows as a may-qualify result.
