Travel has the potential to shatter harmful stereotypes, improve communication, and even boost creativity. A new location can come with exciting and accessible recreational activities. Many individuals living with disabilities are involved in online communities, and traveling to meet those peers in person can reduce feelings of isolation and foster valuable friendships. When it comes to transportation, Advocating Care Services can be your best friend, be it: Ground transportation options, renting a car, or assistance with public transportation. We make sure your transport/commute is surprisingly cheap, efficient, and accessible.
When it comes to accessible travel, there is no one-size-fits-all approach. It’s important to remember that “accessibility” is a subjective term, and what might work for one individual living with a disability may not be possible for someone else. Fortunately, at Advocating Care Services, we have resources and services available to ensure that any travel/transport experience can be both exciting and accessible. With proper research, thoughtful planning, and support from friends and allies, people living with disabilities can take on the world. You might require assistance with transport if:
- You are unable to walk and always require the use of a wheelchair
- Your ability to walk distances is severely restricted by a medical condition
- You need close supervision to safely get around and cannot be left unattended
In addition to providing transport support, we assist our clients in obtaining the equipment and assistance they need to travel independently. We also provide clients with training on using public transportation effectively to make their travels easy and comfortable.
