Hello Gary,

A passenger who has a disability such as blindness does not have to ask for
a wheelchair cab. As you requested,  I have attached a copy of the New
Freedom Ride voucher form in word format.  For further information about the
service,  go to our website (www.hartfordtransit.org) and on the far right
of your screen click on the last emblem labeled "Freedom Ride".

If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Take care,

Pat Williams

Returning good for good is human;

returning good for evil is devine.

Even though you may not need wheelchair cab because of another disability
such as blindness do  you  still ask for  an wheelchair.  I think you
probably would because the accessible taxi  would  probably  be  able  to
read  the  card. 

Do you have  the  from in word.   If  I have  it  in word  I can  type it in
on  the  form ;.  That way  people  will be able  to read it.

Hello Gary,

Please excuse the delay in responding to your below e-mail.  The  ADA
eligible Paratransit passenger will have to fill out the attached form and
mail it back with a check to the address on the form.  The rider will then
receive their voucher card in the mail.  After receipt of the voucher card,
the passenger can begin to call Yellow cab for transportation.

Please make as many copies of the form you deem necessary because the rider
will have to mail a form with the check.  I have also enclosed some
information that will be helpful for you and please share this with the
folks at Independence Unlimited.  

If you have any further questions, do not hesitate to contact me.

Best regards,

Pat Williams

A cheerful heart is good medicine, but a broken

spirit saps a person's strength.

HI Ms. Williams:

I was  wondering  if  you  could  clarify what  you  need to  do  to get a
voucher for the Freedom  Ride  Accessible Taxi Program.  The materials  that
are  advertising  the  service  make  it  sound like  people  have to apply
for a voucher card.  When  you  call  the  number  on  the  Yellow Cab
website it  sends  you  to  the  paratransit number extension 3100.  The
recording does not mention anything about vouchers at  all.   I know I would
like to get a voucher and  so would  other people  at  Independence
Unlimited. 

Gary
