Senior Program BusOur grant funded transportation program is offered at each of our three county community centers as part of the Senior Enrichment Program for seniors 60 years of age or older that meet the annual eligibility requirements. Funding for the Transportation Program is provided by the Houston-Galveston Area Council and Texas Health & Human Services. Every participant must complete an intake assessment annually. This is not a need-based program, and it is open to everyone that qualifies. This funding allows us to provide transport to and from our centers for recreational and enrichment activities planned as part of the Senior Enrichment Program. In addition, the bus does run errands from the centers for essential shopping as scheduled on each center’s activities calendar.

Our vehicles are complete with a wheelchair lift and curb to curb services. Our drivers can assist participants stepping on and off the curb, but those requiring assistance getting to and from the curb need to be accompanied by a companion to assist them. Home visits will be done by our drivers for those with wheelchairs or limited mobility to determine the safest method for transport.

You can schedule an appointment to enroll in the transportation program or get more information by contacting a staff member with the Senior Enrichment Program or by calling 409-770-6251
