Access the Community

Transportation systems are too often unavailable, inaccessible or unequal to people with disabilities. NDRN and the Protection and Advocacy (P&A) Network work to monitor accessibility in a variety of settings, and help enforce federal and state laws relating to accessibility to make sure transportation systems are improved and maintained so people with disabilities can live fully in the community.
