“The Courtesy Card Initiative has been an extremely valuable resource for the individuals we serve. Many of our clients face significant transportation barriers, which can make it difficult to get to work, attend appointments, or even complete basic errands like grocery shopping. Through this program, we were able to help clients maintain employment, access essential services, and move more freely within their communities.”

– Jayla Jones, re-entry and prevention director at Foundation of Hope
