From the meeting
The AAA said transportation was a major unmet need because one-way trips were getting more expensive and providers were limited across the region. For FFY 2027-2029, the plan called for recruiting and contracting with additional transportation providers and community partners, including at least two new providers by the end of Year 1. It also aimed to expand coverage in rural and underserved areas, including Willacy County.
Decision state: planned in the area plan, with contracts still to be executed.
