Residents have access to water currently at two locations:

1. The water pump behind the town hall by the old garage is non-potable, which means it is not safe for drinking.
2. There is a hose set up behind the school at the garden area. Please make sure the valve is off when done. This water is filtered for drinking.

Starting on July 1, 2022 the Dial-a-Ride and Caregiver Mile Reimbursement Programs will be available to Voluntown residents who are Senior (age 60+) and/or with disabilities. This is a grant funded service and there is no guarantee that funding will be available all year.

For information on who qualifies for these services, and how to register, pleas visit the Senior Resources page on our website.
