Description
The SFY2028 Human Service Transportation Grant, administered by the Alaska Department of Transportation & Public Facilities through the Alaska Community Transit (ACT) program, aims to enhance transit services for transit-dependent and vulnerable populations across Alaska. This grant supports projects that address mobility needs of seniors, individuals with disabilities, and Alaska Mental Health Trust beneficiaries, particularly where public transportation is unavailable, insufficient, or inappropriate. Eligible projects may include operating assistance, capital investments, and purchase of transportation services, all designed to improve accessibility and quality of life for Alaskans who rely on transit for essential services.
