Please join us July 29 for a 10 a.m. zoom call as we talk to current CRIS CAT volunteers and our Volunteer Coordinator about the new ways of providing transportation to our seniors and answer any of your questions about what it really means to be a volunteer right now. Email for the zoom link ([email protected]).

What does that mean to be a CRIS CAT volunteer  especially during this time?  

• CRIS CAT (Cazenovia Area Transportation) provides medical transportation to seniors 55+ that live in Cazenovia, Nelson and Fenner.
• Medical transportation can be to an eye doctor, dentist, podiatrist, General Practitioner, etc.
• We are not transporting any senior that has symptoms of COVID
• Commitment is your choice. You can check out the schedule for who needs a ride and decide if you can help that day for about 2 hours or you do not have to respond at all.
• You are not required to volunteer
• You can volunteer every day, every other week or just once in a while
• We do not bother you to volunteer but rather put it out to the group until filled.
• CRIS provides you with extra face masks, hand sanitizer and car sanitizer.
• We are asking our passengers to sit in the back seat of your car
• The scheduler will ask all the COVID related questions to the passengers so you do not need to worry about it
• You would be helping seniors get to essential healthcare appointments because they do not drive and have no other form of transportation.
• You will be helping to keep a senior at home and in our community.
