Transportation

Getting to care starts here.

More than 1 in 5 adults skip healthcare due to transportation challenges. LMTAAA can connect you to reliable rides in your community.

Are you an older adult or an adult living with disability who can't get to the doctor? Whether its unreliable transportation, difficulties getting around, or the lack of a ride, challenges can feel overwhelming. 

Are you a physician, nurse or EMT that sees the same person over and over again because they are unable to get transportation to the care they need?
