We connect people to transportation options in Clackamas, Multnomah and Washington counties.
Ride Connection is a private, non-profit organization based in Portland, Oregon, dedicated to coordinating and providing transportation services to people with limited options in Clackamas, Multnomah and Washington counties. Our organization has been linking transportation to people in our communities for over 25 years.
We believe transportation is a basic human right. Access to transportation means mobility, and being mobile allows a person to connect with his or her community and other essential life destinations.
Ride Connection is more than a ride. We help get you where you need to go through a variety of transportation options. We primarily serve people 60 years of age and older, and people with disabilities, including:
A simple conversation over the phone allows us to link individuals with the best options for their needs. Our services are offered at no cost to our customers, although donations are gladly accepted.
Volunteers are at the heart of our organization and we rely on their contributions to keep the wheels moving. The support of our community is imperative in fulfilling our mission. We have a variety of opportunities for getting more involved with our organization.
