We will work with you to create a trip plan and assist you in reaching your travel goals, giving you the confidence and independence, you need to see the world. You can trust that our trained personnel and helpful support services will keep you safe and comfortable while riding the public transportation system.
In order to help you become more self-reliant, we provide training on how to use public transportation, including bus and train routes, schedules, and the purchase, reloading, and use of MetroCard’s.
