Hancock Public Health has been awarded the Drive to Succeed Grant from the Ohio Department of Traffic Safety.

The grant aims to expand access to teen driver training to low-income populations by providing funding for localized scholarship programs.

If you know a teen who is getting ready to drive, the program could allow them to take driver’s education classes for free.

The program is still accepting applications while spots remain open.
