A Case Study of Job Access and Reverse Commute Programs in the Chicago, Kansas City, and San Francisco Metropolitan Regions

This paper presents three case studies that examine job accessibility and reverse commute transportation programs in the Chicago (Illinois), Kansas City (Missouri), and San Francisco (California) metropolitan regions. The authors explored how institutional and/or grassroots support prevented or fostered the innovation and implementation of non-traditional Access-to-Jobs and Reverse Commute (JARC) programs. The discussion focuses on the role public transportation can or should play in facilitating lower welfare rates. They conclude that institutional support and grassroots support are necessary ingredients for the implementation of innovative transportation programs for low-income families.
