• Abstract:
  The Real Choices Systems Change Grant project was a three-year effort in Montana to provide "systems change" in three areas: housing, individualized services, and transportation. This report focuses exclusively on the transportation component of the Real Choices Systems Change Grant project. The overall goal of the transportation component was to develop two coordinated transportation systems in Montana, glean lessons learned and best practices, and share that information with providers in the rest of the state, and nationally. While there was an emphasis to ensure that the transportation changes met the specific needs of people with disabilities, it was anticipated that improved service would be available to the entire community. The Montana Transportation Partnership selected Helena and Ravalli County to receive funding assistance to make changes to their current transportation systems. The proposals sent in by Helena and Ravalli County each had a different plan for how they would achieve change within their public and specialized transportation systems. The specific plans of each community and other aspects of the Systems Change Grant project are detailed in this report.
