> We’ve been contacted by TriMet’s Accessible Transportation team to share information with NWABA athletes and others who may be affected by upcoming funding changes that will impact TriMet services. TriMet is encouraging anyone who may be impacted to share their input—whether by attending an open house or completing a short survey (linked below). Your voice matters, and this is an opportunity to help shape how services are adjusted.
> They are hosting an open house specifically for older adults, people with disabilities, caregivers and families. This will be on the Zoom platform, Tuesday 10/28, 5pm – 7pm. I will provide the flyer via attachment as well that has a QR code, however you can also find it on the page linked.

> We know transportation can be challenging, and we’ll continue doing our best to help athletes navigate this. While our ability to provide transportation is limited, we’re happy to answer questions or help you access available resources. Please don’t hesitate to reach out if you need assistance.
> Warmly,
> Anneliese
