Transportation Resource Guide for Seniors & Individuals with Disabilities

According to USAging, the national association for Area Agencies on Aging, approximately 600,000 older adults give up driving each year. This transition can create challenges for aging or ill loved ones, making it harder for them to attend medical appointments, shop for necessities, visit family, or participate in social events. Consequently, this increased isolation negatively impacts their health and well- being.
