Explanation
(This amendment would provide additional funding to address waiting lists for transportation services for older Virginians through local area agencies on aging. These services can assist in delaying or avoiding more costly care away from home. These services are essential in assisting older people to remain in their own homes. These funds will be used to provide transportation for older Virginians to medical care, shopping trips, and other essential services.)
