As part of Houston Serves, ParkHouston trains volunteers to protect their communities and help make Houston more accessible by fighting disabled parking space abuse.

The ParkHouston Volunteer Enforcement Program certifies people to issue citations to cars illegally parked in ADA parking spaces. They make a significant impact as ambassadors for the program educating the public on the importance of the parking spaces for members of the disabled community to work, live and play. With the generous help of our volunteers, we have a greater ability to protect the quality of life for those who require ADA parking spaces.

For a quick overview of the Disabled Parking Volunteer Program, please view the presentation.

Volunteers are required to attend a four-hour training session and pass a background check. Once complete, volunteers are empowered to issue citations within the Houston City limits to those who abuse disabled parking spaces.
