Paratransit Dialogue:
Lack of transportation is often identified as one of the major barriers to employment for people with disabilities. There is currently an opportunity available that APSE members may want to take advantage of, to discuss issues related to paratransit. Easter Seals Project Action currently has an on-line dialogue to assess the status of paratransit services nationally and collect recommendations for addressing paratransit needs in the 21st century.
The dialogue is open for comments and discussion until August 6th. Details are at: http://espatalks1.ideascale.com/
