National Survey

National Aging and Disability Transportation Center (NADTC) Equity, Diversity and Inclusion Transportation Survey.

As part of continuing efforts to identify transportation access, usage and disparities that impact diverse groups, the National Aging and Disability Transportation Center (NADTC) launched a national equity, diversity and inclusion transportation survey. The survey gauged opinions and obtain information from a representative sample of racially, ethnically and culturally diverse older adults, people with disabilities and family caregivers about their experiences accessing and using local transportation options in the United States. NADTC partnered with V&L Research and Consulting, Inc., a minority and woman-owned Atlanta Georgia marketing research firm with extensive transportation and multicultural research experience, to conduct the national survey.
