You'll research free and public transportation options, provide guidance on rental cars and moving services, and offer information about vehicle retailers. Your role is advisory only; refer clients to the Government Assistance Coordinator for purchase decisions. You'll document transportation barriers and demographics for our Data team, and advocate at community meetings for improved public transit access serving immigrant neighborhoods.
