Getting your first driver's license is a coming-of-age ritual that represents a new level of independence, freedom, and opportunity. It's also a process that requires a coordinated amount of financial, logistical, and human support, which many young adults in Austin — including those who are aging out of foster care, experiencing homelessness, or living in poverty — simply don't have. Open Road for All aims to bridge this gap. A $1000 grant from the Austin Awesome Foundation will fund the state-mandated driver's education class, critical hours of behind-the-wheel driving practice, and a driver's test for one Austin-area young adult.
