Transportation

WHAT IS MOBILITY MANAGEMENT?

Lorain County Mobility management is an Impact Initiative powered by United Way of Greater Lorain County which focuses on providing transportation options to seniors 65 and older, people with disabilities, and low-income residents. 

We work by increasing awareness of transportation options, ensuring those options are included in planning efforts, collecting data, coordinating training programs, and helping with the development of pilot projects that improve unmet needs and gaps in transportation services. 

We're also building the foundation to develop transportation for everyone and a shared vision of what public transportation could look like throughout our county.
