Senior Transportation
Library
The Beverly Foundation’s research
efforts have resulted in a number of reports that explore vital issues of
senior transportation in depth. Subjects include transportation options,
STPs (Supplemental Transportation Programs for seniors), volunteer driving,
Focus Groups, and community transportation. These research reports include
statistics prepared from STAR Search Surveys, and present a wide variety of
quantitative and qualitative data.
