From Barriers to Pathways.
People experiencing poverty have the highest rate of transportation insecurity, partly due to lower access to licenses. SDDA addresses this barrier, providing unique, no-cost licensing pathways.
SDDA’s mission is to eliminate systemic barriers preventing access to driver’s licenses in underserved neighborhoods. We’re equipping drivers with tools to earn their license and launch lasting careers on the road. SDDA is not just developing drivers, we’re driving change.
