[Scirehab-UW] New SCI Forum Video - "Community Mobility: Getting Where You Want to Go"

Dear Northwest Regional Spinal Cord Injury System Subscribers,   The SCI Forum presentation “Community Mobility: Getting Where You Want to Go,” which took place on June 14, 2011 at the University of Washington Medical Center, is now available for viewing on our website at http://sci.washington.edu/info/forums/reports/transportation_2011.asp.     Learn about the different accessible transportation options available for people with disabilities in the greater Seattle metropolitan area, including buses, light rail, Access, DART and Bus Rapid Transit. Jodi Connolly, MA, CTRS/R of Harborview’s “Getting There” Transportation Resource Center and Amanda Bryant of First Transit discuss these services as well as additional programs that can help you learn how to use the transportation system, plan your trips, and feel comfortable traveling around the community independently. Helpful resources, travel tips and information about volunteer transportation and wheelchair accessible taxis are also provided. Please give us your feedback after watching the video.
