Who might qualify?
The Golden Riders Program is designed for seniors in the DFW metroplex who face transportation barriers and need support accessing essential services. You may qualify if you're age 55 or older and have limited access to reliable transportation for things like medical appointments, grocery shopping, or community events. Priority is given to individuals with fixed or limited incomes, mobility challenges, or who live in areas without public transportation alternatives.
