The American Cancer Society has an ongoing need for drivers for their Road to Recovery program. If you are a licensed driver that is willing to donate your time (Monday through Friday, daytime hours) and use of your vehicle to transport cancer patients to their treatment appointments, contact the American Cancer Society at 1-800-ACS-2345. There is no minimum time commitment, and the society will work within the volunteer's availability.

The Amherst chapter of Secular Organizations for Sobriety meets at 7:30 p.m. Tuesdays at the Center for Inquiry, 1310 Sweet Home Road. Save Our Selves is a nonprofit network of local groups dedicated to helping individuals achieve and maintain sobriety. With more than 20,000 members worldwide, it is an alternative recovery method for those alcoholics or drug addicts uncomfortable with the spiritual content of 12-step programs. For more information, call Eric Chinchon at 636-7571, ext. 226.
