 L2P Learner Driver Mentoring Program

For Just two hours a week you could support a motivated young person in Darebin who does not have the support they need to get their drivers license. Young people in our program come from a diversity of backgrounds and situations. All want to increase their life opportunities by gaining their drivers license.

Young people in the program will have access to professional driving lessons but need someone to give them the driving practice needed to get their license.

 

Volunteers are supported, trained, insured and have access to a program car.

If you think you can help or want to find out more please contact Lesley at DIVRS on 9480 8206 or email L2P@divrs.org.au
