Getting UDS started at your school is simple and we are here to help you every step of the way!
Step 1: Pick your UDS team
The team can be an existing school group, such as peer health educators, or resident hall assistants, or form a new group! Anyone can be a part of UDS and it’s a great community service project.
Step 2: Order your FREE Educational Toolkit
Complete our order form and your school will be officially activated! UDS is free to Washington colleges or universities thanks to the funding from the Washington Traffic Safety Commission and State Farm.
Step 3: Kick off your program and spread the word
While we put your toolkit together and ship you the items, you can begin planning how to spread the safe driving message.
- Use this kick-off guide to get your team started, and learn how to plan activities throughout the year.
- Stay connected with us through social media @UDriverSeat and here online to learn about activity ideas and other safe driving information.
For any questions or information needs, please reach out to WA UDS regional rep, Gaby Kolodzy at [email protected].
Step 4: Keep the program going!
