Learn to Ride with Confidence

The Kennedy Collective Travel Training teaches people with cognitive, sensory, & physical disabilities how to use public buses and trains independently and safely.

What to Expect

PRACTICE USING PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION + LEARN TO TRAVEL SAFELY

A qualified travel trainer will travel with you to your desired locations at times of your convenience. While travelling, they will teach you techniques for safe travel until you feel comfortable and confident riding the bus or train. There is no time limit for this training and will be available for follow-up services.

About The Kennedy Collective

In addition to teaching the community the skills needed to take the bus or train, The Kennedy Collective Travel Training program addresses such issues as:

  • Street crossing

  • Interacting with strangers

  • Being prepared for unexpected circumstances

  • What to do if lost

  • Proper wheelchair securement

  • Self-advocacy

The Travel Training program is funded by the Department of Transportation, therefore there is no cost for the training. Each participant, however, is required to pay the bus or train fare while training is taking place.
