INTRODUCTION

 

Welcome to the Winchendon Community Connection and Access Program (CCAP). Our program, operated by the Winchendon Council on Aging (COA) and the Winchendon Community Action Committee (CAC), aims to provide reliable and accessible transportation for all residents of Winchendon. Your role as a driver is crucial in helping us achieve our mission of enhancing mobility for those who lack access to a vehicle, enabling them to reach jobs, medical appointments, and essential services.

 

Mission Statement

 

The Need

The CCAP program was established through a grant from the Massachusetts Department of Transportation (MassDOT) in response to a critical need within our community. Residents of Winchendon without access to a car have virtually no access to jobs, medical/health appointments, and basic needs, including food at the nearest grocery store.

Mobility is critical to health, well-being, and economic empowerment. This transportation program is dedicated to ensuring equitable access to transportation for all Winchendon residents, particularly those who do not have access to a personal vehicle. By providing a dependable and sustainable transportation solution, we aim to enhance the quality of life for Winchendon residents.
