Hodan Center, Inc.
A Community Rehabilitation Program
for Adults with Disabilities

Transportation Services

The Hodan Center operates six bus routes in our service area of Iowa, Lafayette, and Grant counties. These fixed routes bring approximately 100 client-employees to and from to the Center on a daily basis. In our rural area, where no public forms of transportation are available, our bus system makes all of the opportunities offered at the Center accessible to adults with disabilities. 

Specialized Medical Transportation:

Through contracts with a variety of agencies within our service area, we are able to provide transportation services to the general elderly and disabled community to medical appointments, and when possible, social or family gatherings. Through this arrangement we are able to give these people and their families some options to meet their transportation needs.

Our fleet has aged and received a much-needed improvement when we received two new large buses in late December 2004. The two buses that were retired had a total of over 378,000 miles between them. These buses were procured through a federally funded and state run grant program. The successful application was written in 2002. We will receive two more large buses and possibly a mini-van through the same grant in late fall of this year that will add even more flexibility to our system. The newer vehicles are more fuel-efficient and are a vast improvement over the school buses that we have had in the past. We have stuck to our standard paint scheme, so if you see a white bus traveling the rural roads of Iowa, Lafayette, or the eastern portion of Grant County, it is a good chance it will be one of ours.
