About the Program
The Ready Ride program is a volunteer-based program serving the counties of Douglas, Grant, Pope, Stevens, and Traverse. The goal is to provide transportation services so older adults can continue to live in their home as long as it is safe for them to do so. Transportation needs include medical and non-medical rides. Cost-sharing applies. Rider must be age 65 or over.
