How to apply for Liberty County Senior Citizens Association — Door-to-Door Senior Transportation
Liberty County Senior Citizens Association, Inc. (LCSCA) — 501(c)(3) nonprofit serving as the contracted local AAA delivery partner under Advantage Aging Solutions (PSA 2 Area Agency on Aging) for OAA Title III nutrition + senior services + transportation; office at 15629 NW County Road 12, Bristol FL 32321; serves Florida's smallest-population county (~8,000 residents)
Who it's for
Liberty County Senior Citizens Association (LCSCA) operates door-to-door senior transportation for Florida's smallest-population county (~8,000 residents). Liberty County has NO fixed-route bus system — LCSCA paratransit, plus Florida TD-program-funded trips, are the only public-transit options. Eligibility uses the Florida TD framework: age 60+ OR documented disability OR low-income transportation-disadvantaged status — any one of three pathways qualifies. Trip purposes include non-emergency medical (commonly to Calhoun Liberty Hospital in Blountstown — the shared two-county hospital), nutrition trips to the LCSCA Senior Center congregate dining, shopping, recreation, and other daily needs. Liberty County's small population and rural geography mean trip availability depends heavily on shared-ride scheduling efficiency; advance reservations (typically 24-48 hours minimum) are essential. The LCSCA office at 15629 NW County Road 12 in Bristol serves as the integrated intake point for transportation + Meals on Wheels + senior services. Cross-county medical trips to Tallahassee (Capital Regional, TMH) for tertiary care can typically be scheduled with adequate lead time.
Liberty County is Florida's smallest county by population (~8,000 residents) — LCSCA transit capacity is correspondingly modest and limited to LCSCA's vehicles and driver availability. All trips require advance reservation; same-day rides are typically not available. Florida TD framework's three-pathway eligibility (60+ OR disability OR low-income) is broad, so most Liberty seniors qualify. The integrated single-intake CCSCA-style model means transportation can be coordinated with same-agency Meals on Wheels and Senior Center activities through one phone call. For tertiary medical care, advance scheduling for Tallahassee (about 1 hour east) is necessary; Calhoun Liberty Hospital in Blountstown is the closest emergency / community-hospital option (about 25 minutes west).
What you'll need
- Proof of age 60+ OR documented disability OR low-income TD eligibility (Medicare card, Florida ID, physician note, income documentation)
- Proof of Liberty County residency (utility bill, lease, or government correspondence)
- Completed Florida TD eligibility application
- Advance reservation (typically 24-48 hours; cross-county trips need longer lead time)
