Transportation

Are you an injured or ill veteran in need of assistance getting to and from your VA medical appointments? Contact a Transportation Coordinator near you to get a ride from one of our volunteers.
​(Please notify coordinators a week prior to appointment).

​
​MISSION STATEMENT

DAV established the Volunteer Transportation Network (VTN), a free non-medical transportation service, in collaboration with the Veteran Affairs (VA) Healthcare System nationally. The shuttle service helps to provide transportation to and from VA scheduled medical appointments for ambulatory veterans who have limited mobility, lack access to transportation, or cannot drive themselves. The service ensures that veterans have reliable and safe transportation to their medical appointments, helping to improve health outcomes in the veteran community. 

Our VTN program is dedicated to providing safe, reliable, and compassionate transportation to individuals who require assistance getting to and from medical appointments. Our mission is to ensure that every client receives the highest level of care and attention, and their their transportation needs are met with the utmost professionalism and respect.

DAV strives to make a positive difference in the lives of veterans by providing timely and efficient transportation services that enable them to access medical care without the stress and worry of transportation. Our goal is to enhance their quality of life by providing a comfortable and reassuring experience that helps them to feel supported and cared for.
​

We believe that everyone deserves access to quality medical care, and that transportation should never be a barrier to getting the help they need. Through our our commitment to excellence and our unwavering dedication to U.S. military veterans of all branches, we aim to be a trusted partner in their healthcare journey, providing reliable transportation solutions that meet their unique needs and exceed their expectations.
