Transportation

 What we do

• Investigate the quantitative and qualitative needs for transportation required to access health and human services.

 

• Catalogue the scope and effectiveness of existing transportation services as well as their accessibility to those most in need.

 ​

• Create free or low-cost solutions available to our partnering organizations in response to identified unmet transportation needs.
