Our Executive Director got to share about transportation for older adults and people with chronic illnesses (highlighting our rural lens) alongside fellow experts and in a room full of riders, transit planners, techies, funders, transit agenices, and human service agencies hosted at the Ford World Headquarters.
Thank you, Catch a Ride Network!
Staying independent often comes down to having a reliable way to get where you need to go. For older adults and people managing chronic conditions, one missed ride can mean a missed appointment or a gap in care.
On October 1st, this panel will look at how transportation supports independence, healthy aging, chronic disease management, continuity of care, and quality of life.
Thank you to our panelists:

Phillip D. Levy, MD, MPH, Edward S. Thomas Endowed Professor of Emergency Medicine & Associate Vice President for Translational Science,
