 Mobility Management

 

At Knox Public Health, we prioritize innovation in transportation services and coordination to meet the unique needs of our community. Our approach involves creating local and regional solutions that align with the community's vision and needs. We educate consumers about available transportation resources and programming, offering an easy access point for information and referrals to assist individuals in learning about and accessing local home services. Additionally, we provide guidance and support with program eligibility and technical assistance in completing the county's transportation plan. We coordinate meetings for the county's transportation advisory committee, implement new Mobility Management practices with clear goals and strategies, and connect with the community on all levels to provide education.
