Diversity & Senior Transportation Booklet

By 2020, 23.6 percent of the older population in the U.S. will represent culturally or ethnically diverse groups. To address this issue, in December 2008, the NCST convened a National Coalition on the Mobility Needs of Culturally and Ethnically Diverse Elders. The coalitions recommendations are prioritized and organized in a new booklet entitled, “Everyone Rides: Transportation Access for Culturally and Ethnically Diverse Elders.”
