COMMUNITY COACH Community Coach provides convenient, door-to-door transportation for eligible riders with no other means of transportation. We accommodate riders who use wheelchairs, walkers, canes, service animals and other mobility aids. Our licensed and insured drivers deliver clients to medical appointments, grocery stores and other essential destinations – safely and securely. To become a Community Coach rider, Senior Resource Association’s eligibility specialists will walk you through the process. Determining eligibility status is an easy procedure, and will get you riding in no time. Community Coach is a shared-ride service so passengers should be prepared to make stops along the way to their destination. Personal care attendants who accompany riders may travel at no cost.
