Bus Buddies
The Age Strong Commission’s AmeriCorps Seniors Bus Buddy volunteers are trained and matched to people 55 and over to teach them how to plan trips and navigate routes safely on the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority Transit system.
Each Bus Buddy and their matches ride the transit system together until they are comfortable riding alone. They travel to medical appointments and fun locations throughout the city.
