- W2588893438 abstract "Over 22 million U.S. veterans live in America. This population is expected to increase as older veterans live longer and as active members of the armed forces leave the service. Forty percent (40%) of these veterans are over 65 years old; which surpasses the percentage of senior citizens in the general public. Veterans have higher disability rates and more severe disabilities than others. The number of disabled post-911 veterans will likely increase more than 50% between 2013 and 2018. Unemployment among young disabled veterans remains high. Federal, state and local governments have initiated policies and programs to meet post-war veterans’ needs, including community services, job-training, and medical care. They also have instituted programs to address the needs of aging veterans, who may be isolated because of diminishing volunteer transportation networks. To better serve these veterans, federal, state, and local governments have increasingly been incorporating public transportation into these programs. The Federal Transit Administration funded the Veterans Transportation and Community Livability Initiative (VTCLI) which was led by the National Coordinating Council on Access and Mobility. The goal of this initiative was to address the transportation needs of veterans and their families by promoting coordinated transportation services and disseminating information about them. The program funded “One-Click/One-Call” centers to connect veterans and their families with all available transportation options. These centers are designed to provide information on transportation services, and where feasible, to assist in scheduling and dispatching coordinated transportation services. “One-Click/One-Call” centers seek to address all transportation needs, including access to veterans’ services, community services and amenities, job access, education, child care, and social and recreational activities. The Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT) was awarded a Veterans Transportation and Community Livability Initiative grant with the Urban Transportation Center (UTC) at the University of Illinois Chicago as sub-recipient. They used this grant to create a “One-Click Transportation Resource Center” to inform Illinois veterans and their families about existing transportation services throughout Illinois. The Urban Transportation Center built upon the existing Tranpro Information Management System, which houses the Illinois Public and Specialized Transportation Provider Inventory. They incorporated the Illinois Bus Network project, a trip planner for accessing commercial bus and rail operators, as well as veterans’ transportation services in Illinois that the Veterans Administration and the Illinois Veterans Assistance Commissions provide. They also included car-sharing and ride-sharing options. The “One-Click Transportation Resource Center” website therefore offers the user transportation solutions based on location; type of service; and veteran, senior, and/or disability status." @default.
