It is our mission to provide an individualized transportation service to help Riders with unique needs move closer to independence, community inclusion, and self-empowerment. We do so by providing individuals ages 16 and older the opportunity to find a trained and vetted driver if they are unable to drive themselves. \u00a0<\/p>\n<p>We make it simple by recruiting, pre-screening, and training drivers. \u00a0We check background and driving records. In addition, all drivers must have experience or training with diverse populations of individuals \u00a0before they become a potential driver for you or your family member.<\/p>\n<p>After you register with us and tell us your driving needs, FARE-Cle will provide you with the names and contact information of the Drivers who are available at the times you need them. \u00a0You will take it from there&#8230;.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Please note:<\/strong>\u00a0 We do not provide Non-medical transportation (NMT) through Medicaid nor do we drive to schools or day programs.
