Supporting Community Approaches to Transportation:
Volunteers of America Pennsylvania (VOAPA) provides personalized case management for women during pregnancy and for up to 18 months postpartum, supporting babies, siblings, and families with education, health care access and referrals. Services include parenting classes and access to a baby pantry stocked with essentials like diapers, formula and car seats. Clients can enroll at any stage of pregnancy.
This grant helps VOAPA provide rideshare services, gas cards, bus passes, and vehicle assistance to address critical transportation barriers, promoting better health outcomes for mothers and their babies. For clients with language barriers, VOAPA also partners with a translation service to ensure accessible support.
