AFC & the ARISE Coalition Testify on School Transportation
Advocates for Children testified before the City Council Committee on Education about the importance of improving the school transportation system, especially for students with disabilities, students in foster care, and students in temporary housing, and in support of a bill to provide real-time GPS bus location data to parents.
The Коалиция ARISE, which is coordinated by AFC, also testified in support of the bill, highlighting some of the trends Coalition members have seen that make this system so problematic for individual families and their children with disabilities.
