Provides accessible transportation services to those who need it the most—persons who are elderly or disabled or who live in rural areas without personal means of transportation. Paratransit Services has been an advocate of coordinated transportation since our formation under the Kitsap Peninsula Housing and Transportation Association (KPHTA) in 1980. The Transportation Department was formed by the consolidation of specialized transportation resources in Kitsap County, Washington. Several nursing homes, group homes, social service agencies, and community service agencies donated their vehicles to develop a pool of transportation resources. KPHTA employed the drivers, dispatchers and staff to operate specialized transportation services for the clients served by participating agencies. These coordinated services laid the groundwork for specialized public transportation in Kitsap County. We have recently expanded our services under contract with the Department of Health and Social Services with the addition of  the "Interpreter Services" program. Working on a model similar to the transportation brokerage, our call center personnel broker the assignment of language interpreters for medical appointments so that language barriers do not prevent a client from accessing medical care.
