Navigating the Road to Recovery Together

Second Chance Opportunities Outreach Transportation (SCOOT) is our transportation service designed to support individuals in recovery from substance use disorder. Our mission is to eliminate transportation barriers, ensuring that those on their recovery journey can access vital appointments and services and resources without worry. By diligently working to secure funding sources, SCOOT transportation services are available at no cost to the individual.
