youth. This organization is truly making a difference in keeping teen
drivers safe on the roadways.

IT TAKES A COMMUNITY
The DCH Auto Group Charitable Foundation has partnered with a number of safe driving and
youth safety organizations, forming a robust community dedicated to saving lives. From the Na-
tional Automobile Dealers Association’s Dealers Driving Road Safety to the Brain Injury Alliance of
New Jersey, we work with local and national organizations and programs.
National Organizations for Youth Safety
National Organizations for Youth Safety (NOYS) is a coalition of
non-profit and for-profit youth serving organizations and govern-
ment agencies working together toward the common goal of
addressing health and safety issues that affect youth in the United
States. The DCH Auto Group Charitable Foundation works with
NOYS to showcase effective programs for youth driving safety.
Additionally, Foundation Executive Director Roy Bavaro serves as
Treasurer of NOYS and is a member of the Board of Directors.
National Safety Council
The DCH Auto Group Charitable Foundation is a founding member
of the National Safety Council’s (NSC) Teen Safe Driving Coalitions
in New Jersey, New York, and California. Through our involvement
with the NSC Coalitions, we are working to raise awareness among
parents of young drivers about the significance of the graduated
driver license (GDL), and the importance of parents playing an
active part in their child’s driver education.
Impact Teen Drivers
The DCH Auto Group Charitable Foundation partnered with
Impact Teen Drivers -- a California-based safe driving aware-
ness organization -- to create the DCH-Impact Defensive Driving
Course, a free program for parents and teen drivers offered regu-
larly at DCH Auto Group dealerships.
