ESPA Hosts Free Audio Conference: How to Find a Ride

Registration deadline: April 28
As part of Easter Seals Project ACTION’s Promising Practices and Solutions in Accessible Transportation, Ken Thompson, technical assistance specialist at ESPA, will address ways customers can find a ride in their communities. This presentation is intended for human service providers, caregivers, and people with disabilities interested in learning more about how to best explore their transportation options.
Resources related to the presentation will be posted one week prior to the conference. The materials will provide more in-depth information on the topic, but it will not be necessary to download them for the presentation.
In order to give presenters an opportunity to learn about the interests of participants, everyone is invited to email their areas of interest and/or questions one week prior to the conference to espadistancelearning@easterseals.com. The presenters will review these comments and do their best to address these issues during the presentation. Please type “how to find a ride” in the subject line and submit questions no later than April 28, which is also the registration deadline.
