VOC Early Education and Care Transportation Department

At the Valley Opportunity Council (VOC), we understand that access to quality early education is essential for the development of children, but transportation can be a barrier for many families. To ensure that all eligible children enrolled in our Early Education and Care programs can attend regularly and receive the support they need, VOC offers a comprehensive transportation service. Our Early Education and Care Transportation Department is dedicated to providing safe, reliable, and timely transportation for children in our programs, so they can participate in their education without worry or delay.

Our transportation services are available to children enrolled in VOC Early Education and Care programs who meet specific eligibility criteria. These services are designed to assist families who may face challenges in getting their children to and from school, whether due to distance, financial limitations, or other factors. We prioritize ensuring that every child, regardless of their family's circumstances, has access to the full benefits of early childhood education.

Our transportation department coordinates daily routes to and from various Early Education and Care programs, ensuring that each child is picked up and dropped off at their home or an approved location.

Safety is our top priority. All vehicles in our fleet are regularly maintained and driven by trained, experienced drivers who are committed to the well-being of the children in their care. Our team ensures that every child is transported safely, and we adhere to all local regulations and guidelines to guarantee compliance with safety standards.
