New! CarFit: Helping Mature Drivers Find Their Fit
CarFit is an educational program that offers older adults the opportunity to check how well their personal vehicles "fit" them.
The CarFit program also provides information and materials on community-specific resources that could enhance their safety as drivers, and/or increase their mobility in the community.
Bring CarFit to your community! Contact Nancy Krueger, ADRC Health and Wellness Coordinator, at (920) 740-9572 to learn how you can have a CarFit event in your town.
