The Metropolitan Washington Council of Governments (MWCOG) received a $9.2 million project grant award from the Department of Transportation's Federal Transit Administration under the Enhanced Mobility of Seniors and Individuals with Disabilities program (CFDA 20.513). The grant will fund transportation services and mobility management programs for older adults and people with disabilities in the Washington D.C. urban area through February 2027. Specifically, MWCOG will provide $6.9 million in capital and operating funds to 21 sub-awardees, including 12 non-profits, 5 for-profits, and 3 local governments. Sub-awardees will use the funds to replace 32 vehicles, procure 10 new vehicles, operate wheelchair accessible taxis and transportation programs, offer travel training and mobility counseling, and launch a program to improve transportation access for dialysis patients. The overall goals are to maintain and expand transportation options knowledge for vulnerable populations in the region.
