Transportation
Helping families get where they need to go — with dignity, care, and support.
Accessing medical care for a child with a serious illness often means long, frequent trips to out-of-area hospitals and specialists. On California’s Central Coast, there are no local children’s specialty hospitals, and many families face hours of travel each way — often multiple times a week.
At Partnership for Children, transportation is at the heart of our mission. We believe no family should miss a medical appointment because they don’t have a ride or can’t afford gas.
What We Provide
Coordination support to help families navigate transportation logistics and appointment schedules
Safe, reliable rides to and from medical appointments for children and their caregivers
Gas cards to help families who are able to drive but need help covering the cost
How It Helps
Transportation can be one of the biggest barriers to care — especially for families balancing work, childcare, and financial stress. Our transportation support helps:
Ensure children don’t miss essential treatments and appointments
Reduce stress and logistical burdens on caregivers
Keep families connected to consistent, compassionate care
