Giving the Gift of Mobility
Transportation is a basic human need. People need to get to work, grocery shop, visit family and friends, see the doctor, and connect with other people. We coordinate and provide transportation services for those in need.
Making the Connection
Our passion is enabling customers to enjoy a higher quality of life through mobility and we are committed to providing them with transportation options that fit their individual needs.
For over 20 years we have served Clackamas, Multnomah, and Washington Counties through a network of more than 30 community service partners. Currently we provide services to older adults and people with disabilities, rural Washington County residents, and low-income job seekers. We have a wide array of transportation services from door to door rides to teaching people how to use public transportation to vehicle sharing programs, and our focus remains the same....connecting individuals with their communities.
We provided over 370,000 rides last year and assisted an additional 1,000 customers through our RideWise Travel Training program. Thanks to the support of our volunteers and contributions, the number of people we help increases year after year.
