The failure to ensure that optimal, individual-level health is achievable for all can cause a community to experience an absence of health equity.  Among people with disability, access to transportation is a major barrier to maintaining medical appointment and participating in health promoting behaviors.

People with disability are at a greater risk of experiencing health disparities than any other demographic group in the country.  The over 50 million Americans living with a disability deserve a solution and a human-centered design thinking approach will begin to formulate one.
