Provides transportation to medical appointments free of charge.
Care Transit Volunteer drivers provide personalized medical rides to appointments and treatments. This is a door to door service to all those who are eligible and living in Hope BC and area, and throughout the Fraser Canyon to Boston Bar. Drivers provide caring and confidential service, transporting clients to their appointments and waiting until they are ready to return home. Clients are respectfully asked to donate what they can to help cover program costs.

Individuals requiring transportation must first be registered with Care Transit. Medical appointments may be local or throughout the Lower Mainland. Individuals are usually referred to the program by an agent, doctor, family member, friend or school principal in order to access the Care Transit services. Self-referrals are possible, but an interview is required to ensure eligibility. Helpful staff are available to assist with the simple registration process at the Hope office.
