The Mobility Center is one of many programs within the Regional Transportation Collaborative (RTC)
OUR TRI-CORE MODEL
The Mobility Center operates on a dynamic Tri-Core Service Model designed to deliver free, efficient transportation support across five counties. Serving hundreds of vulnerable individuals each year, the Center processes thousands of calls, coordinates thousands of rides, and tracks extensive volunteer driver hours and miles.
Livable Community
Rooted in AARP’s definition of a livable community, the Mobility Center provides accessible, inclusive transportation information and referrals to all residents—regardless of age, ability, or income. While programs are tailored to support older adults and individuals with disabilities, the call center is intentionally structured to benefit the entire community.
Non-Competitive Filter
To maximize efficiency and preserve resources, transportation referrals follow a strategic, tiered approach: first to public transit, then to community-based services, and finally to financial or private options. This non-competitive model ensures services are utilized in a way that supports local investments into public transportation and conserves scarcer resources.
Leveraged Collaborative
By coordinating at a regional level, the Mobility Center empowers smaller programs through shared resources, joint planning, and collaborative funding. This model eliminates local competition for limited grants, fostering unified applications and sustainable solutions for priority projects.
Together, these three pillars form a resilient, inclusive, and forward-thinking mobility system—one that enhances individual independence and strengthens the fabric of the communities it serves.
