Disability Services & Support in Albany, CA — Rides Built Around You

The calls we hear most: paratransit gave a two-hour window and burned the whole day, an adult child in San Diego is trying to coordinate rides for a parent in Albany, a senior center trip fell through because the shared shuttle broke down, or a wheelchair user needs to get to a family event tonight. These are all fixable with a phone call.

Warning signs you need a real accessible ride instead of a favor from family: the passenger has fallen recently, uses a walker or wheelchair, gets confused with new drivers, or needs someone to walk them into the building. Family caregivers burn out fast when they become the taxi. A trained driver takes that off your plate.

Albany's senior population uses a lot of different services — the Albany Senior Center on Marin, Kaiser and Sutter clinics across the East Bay, the VA in Martinez, and Alta Bates in Berkeley. Combine that with older housing stock that has stairs, narrow doorways, and limited street parking, and you need a driver who can problem-solve on the spot.

We cover Albany, Berkeley, El Cerrito, Kensington, Richmond, Emeryville, Oakland, Piedmont, San Pablo, Pinole, Hercules, Rodeo, Crockett, Martinez, Vallejo, Orinda, San Leandro, and San Francisco. Family members out of town can book on behalf of a loved one — we'll call you when the ride is done.
