Auto Club Safety Program Coordinators run the driver-education, traffic-safety, and community-outreach programs that AAA-style clubs offer to members and the broader public.
Day-to-day tends to mix program logistics with light instruction: scheduling teen driver classes, coordinating senior driver refreshers, prepping safety materials for schools, and tracking who showed up and what they learned. You'll often manage a roster of part-time instructors and volunteer presenters.
The collaboration surface is broader than it looks. You're typically working with schools, DMV contacts, law enforcement, and member services, plus the marketing team when there's a campaign to push. Funding can come from a mix of dues, grants, and sponsorships, so reporting to multiple stakeholders is usually part of the rhythm.
This role tends to fit people who care about traffic safety as a mission, not just a job — outreach work rewards patience and persistence. If you'd rather have a tightly defined desk role, the constant context-switching between events, classrooms, and admin can wear thin.
