The purpose of this funding opportunity is to weave together inclusive transportation planning, development, and implementation with grassroots-driven mobility on demand (MOD) solutions. Selected grantees will work to fully engage people with disabilities, older adults, and caregivers in partnership with transportation, planning, and human services organizations to identify, develop, and implement mobility on demand solutions that respond to local transportation barriers and issues and test a standard way of sharing trip data to support coordination and mobility on demand.     https://ctaa.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/ACL-Inclusive-Planning-Mobility-on-Demand-RFP-Final.pdf

10:10 -11:30 am

Agenda

1. Introductions

​2.  Webmeeting with Kathrine Freund, President, ITNAmerica, on ITNCountry and a mobility backoffice as a service.  Katherine will discuss development plans for ITNCountry to enable rural communities to develop flexible mobility services. See summary of ITNCountry. (45 minutes) 

 
How will it work
The new approach for rural and small communities is called ITNCountry. There are several proposed differences between the original ITN and the rural model, all designed to reduce costs and to use technology to create an efficient, connected system. 
  • The original ITN is an entirely separate non-profit organization, but ITNCountry can be a program within another organization.
  • The original ITN guarantees a ride 24/7 for any purpose, while ITNCountry service parameters will be established by the local communities.
  • Because small, rural community programs often run with little or no paid staff, ITNCountry will be designed to run with only volunteers, if that is what the community chooses to do.
  • Another proposed difference will be how ITNCountry communities learn how to run the service. ITN is building a large on-line learning community where all of ITN’s innovative programs are taught and supported.
What ITN programs are included with the new model
With all of these differences, what is proposed to stay the same? The important stuff—all of ITN’s award winning programs, including;
  • CarTrade
  • Transportation Social Security
  • Ride & Shop
  • Healthy Miles
  • Ride Services
  • Personal Transportation Accounts
