Transportation

Issue:         

Reliable transportation is key to independence, opportunity and a full life within one’s community. Very few people with severe intellectual or developmental disabilities can drive or own their own cars, therefore they rely on public transportation and transportation services. There is currently insufficient funding and infrastructure to ensure these individuals have reliable transportation to employment, community supports and recreational opportunities.

Position:     

We continue to advocate for adequate transportation to bring people with intellectual and developmental disabilities to work, day settings, and recreational opportunities.
