Connecting People to Employment and Enhancing Mobility for People with Disabilities: An Evaluation of Job Access and Reverse Commute (JARC) and New Freedom Program Services Provided in 2007 and 2008

The Job Access Reverse Commute (JARC) program was established to address the unique transportation challenges that welfare recipients and low-income individuals face in finding and keeping jobs. The New Freedom program was established to provide new public transportation services and new alternatives to public transportation for people with disabilities beyond the requirements of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (ADA). This study analyzed the JARC and New Freedom funded services provided in FY 2007 and 2008 and provides information on the number of jobs that can be accessed and the number of rides provided by JARC services. The study also provides information on the number of rides provided by New Freedom funded services. The report also includes detailed profiles of services funded under both programs.
