New! From the American Indian Disability Technical Assistance Center

(AIDTAC):

All people who live in rural areas need transportation, including American Indians and their tribal members with disabilities. However, tribal needs are often more pronounced than those of other rural Americans; and transportation planning can be complicated by immense distances across tribal lands, cumbersome administrative demands and other challenges.

For more information on tribal transportation problems and solutions, read "Tribal Transportation: Barriers and Solutions" at http://www.aidtac.org/tribaltransportation.htm This report is available in large print, Braille, and ASCII DOS text.
