Southwest Tennessee Area Agency on Aging and Disability (SWTDD), part of the Southwest Tennessee Development District
Who it's for
Volunteer drivers give Madison County seniors age 60 and older door-through-door rides to doctor appointments, grocery shopping, the barber or beauty shop, and social gatherings. A yearly membership costs $25 and includes the first 3 rides; each ride after that is $2. Riders must be able to walk on their own or with a walker or cane. Call MyRide West Tennessee at 1-844-803-0169 to join or to book a ride.
Riders must be age 60 or older and able to walk on their own or with a walker or cane — this is not a wheelchair-accessible paratransit service. Rides are low-cost, not free: the membership is $25 a year and includes the first 3 rides, then each trip costs $2. Rides depend on a volunteer driver being available, so book ahead.
People who qualify for one senior program often qualify for others. See everything you may qualify for — free, no SSN, about five minutes.
