Community Partner Grant Program

Community Partners Grant Program (funded by Measure L) provides an opportunity for Stanislaus County non-profit agencies who provide services to seniors, individuals with disabilities and Veterans to apply for funding to assist their clients with transportation needs. This funding may be used to either expand a current transportation program or develop a new program to meet transportation needs not currently met my other programs in Stanislaus County.

Grant applications will be accepted until funding is no longer available. Should your agency have a transportation need that is currently not being met by any programs available in Stanislaus County, please contact:

Veteran Services Office – The Veteran Services Office of Modesto has created a new program to provide bus passes to qualifying low-income Veterans in Stanislaus County.

Scholarships Fund:

The MOVE Scholarship Fund provides qualifying organizations with funding to improve staff training in technical and managerial skills related to transportation programs. These trainings could include attendance at industry conferences such as CalACT, participation in training programs conducted by the National Transit Institute (NTI), specialized programs such as wheelchair securement training conducted by national firms, or courses in business skills such as technology or grant writing. The funds are used for registration, travel, lodging, meals, for staff members to attend training. Grant recipients are required to report back to MOVE on the results of the training. This could be in the form of a brief written report to MOVE Chief Executive Officer (CEO)
