How to apply for Wakulla Senior Center / WCSCC Transportation — Door-to-Door Senior Paratransit

Wakulla County Senior Citizens Council, Inc. (WCSCC, operating as Wakulla Senior Center) — 501(c)(3) nonprofit; contracted local AAA delivery partner under Advantage Aging Solutions (PSA 2 Area Agency on Aging) for OAA Title III + senior transportation in Wakulla County; office at 33 Michael Drive, Crawfordville FL 32327

Who it's for

Wakulla Senior Center (operated by Wakulla County Senior Citizens Council, WCSCC) provides door-to-door senior transportation for Wakulla County — coordinating with the integrated single-intake model that also delivers Meals on Wheels, congregate meals, and in-home services. Wakulla County does NOT operate a fixed-route bus system; senior transportation through the Wakulla Senior Center is the primary mobility option for seniors needing rides to medical appointments, congregate meals at the Crawfordville senior center, shopping, and other essential trips. For longer-distance trips (especially to Tallahassee Memorial HealthCare or Capital Regional Medical Center in Leon County for hospital care — Wakulla has no acute-care hospital of its own), Big Bend Transit's regional paratransit and inter-county trip services supplement the local WCSCC transit. Eligibility uses age 60+ and Wakulla County residency; the Florida TD framework's broader three-pathway test (60+ OR disability OR low-income) also applies. Advance reservations are required. Apply by calling 850-926-7145 (Wakulla Senior Center service/intake line); administrative hours M-F 8 a.m. - 5 p.m.

Wakulla County has NO fixed-route public bus system AND NO acute-care hospital — both significant infrastructure gaps that shape senior service delivery. Wakulla Senior Center transit is the primary local option; Big Bend Transit supplements with regional paratransit and inter-county trips to Tallahassee. For seniors needing emergency care, ride preparation to TMH or Capital Regional Medical Center in Leon County is essential — these are typically 30-45 minute drives from Crawfordville and require coordinated transportation for non-driving seniors. The Wakulla Senior Center's integrated single-intake model (one phone for transit + meals + in-home services + EHEAP) is operationally streamlined. Advance reservations are required; same-day rides are typically not available.

What you'll need

Proof of age 60+ (Florida driver's license, Florida ID, Medicare card, or birth certificate)
Proof of Wakulla County residency (utility bill, lease, or government correspondence)
Completed Wakulla Senior Center registration
Advance reservation (typically 24-48 hours; longer for cross-county trips to Tallahassee)
