Access to healthcare, jobs and essential services has never been more predominant than during the pandemic. While transit is the backbone of this access for millions of people, vast areas of the state are not accessible to transit, nor is it practical to provide transit in these areas.  Mobility Managers help bring the people who need the rides together with the people who can provide rides with those who can potentially fund rides to create innovative, community-based solutions by identify gaps in services, coordinating existing resources and developing new programs when needed..
