DriveSafe Teams Up With CDHS to Provide Free Driver's Education

DriveSafe Driving Schools Announces Driver's Education for SNAP Families

DENVER, Sept. 14, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- DriveSafe Driving Schools and the Colorado Department of Human Services (CDHS) have teamed up to provide driver's education to families that receive the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) benefits. Driving is a staple of economic empowerment; it promotes greater mobility for families to get to and from work or school.

Both organizations believe in creating pathways for low-income households to become self-sufficient. As part of this mission, DriveSafe is offering free access to driver's education for SNAP families.

DriveSafe is providing a 30-hour online driver's education course at no charge. This allows families the flexibility to learn driver's education at their own pace and convenience.

DriveSafe will enroll the first 1000 SNAP applicants that apply and then will begin accepting more SNAP applicants once others finish their course.

Please visit CDHS SNAP for more information.
