The purpose of this study is to better understand the transportation needs of individuals with disabilities in northwest suburbs of Chicago through the lens of families and care providers’ experiences by addressing three research objectives:
- To develop a richer understanding of how individuals with disabilities are currently blending private and public forms of transportation to meet their needs (i.e. educational, employment, medical, recreation, and social, etc.);
- To explore to what degree individuals with disabilities, families, and care providers encounter transportation-related constraints and barriers; and,
- To facilitate awareness of the services individuals with disabilities, families, and care providers currently use.
