This is especially so for clients whose disability makes it difficult to access transport. We can provide funding for clients to access taxis, rideshares, community vehicles, and other appropriate transport methods.
Depending on support level, a support worker can accompany the client with their travel needs through public transport or their own vehicle. Clients can also choose to develop skills in using public transport independently.
