Senior Mobility

Senior Mobility News

A vibrant community depends on the participation and contributions of all its members. A vital community provides its seniors with services, goods, information and relationships, while seniors, in turn, contribute work, volunteer activity, family ties, experience and history.

Most Americans are going to live for a number of years after they cease driving. And many will cut back on driving for several years before they completely stop.

The challenge is to meet the special transportation needs of these seniors so that they can enjoy the last years of their lives, living independently in their own homes and connected to their communities.

Lost mobility jeopardizes not only the physical and emotional health of the individual who may feel a sense of loss and dependency but also the quality of their community.
