United We Ride Programs
United We Ride is a national program by the U.S. Federal Government. United We Ride recognizes that public transportation plays a critical role in people’s lives and livelihoods by providing access to employment, medical and health care, education, and other services and amenities.
There are about 60 federal programs providing grants that in some form support public transportation. In order to better coordinate federal funding and grant-awarding on public transportation, the Federal Government created the Interagency Transportation Coordinating Council on Access and Mobility (CCAM).
In turn, the CCAM developed United We Ride – a national initiative focused on federal grants coordination, technical assistance, and planning that are necessary for States and local communities to develop more affordable and accessible public transit systems.
United We Ride coordinated Federal Programs that can reimburse costs of transportation such as fares, gas and bus passes for those that match their eligibility requirements.
Here is a list of different Federal Programs that can reimburse costs of fares, gas, bus passes or supports the purchase of a vehicle for public and nonprofit agencies.
