Martha’s Vineyard Transportation Access Program 2023/2024


About the Transportation Access Program:

The Transportation Access Program assists Island residents and families with excessive costs of off-Island travel due to long-term illness and health/mental health needs requiring services not available on the Island.

The Transportation Access Program began in 2016, and since then has helped over 400 Island families with off-Island travel expenses.

All Martha’s Vineyard residents are eligible to apply for up to $750.00 annually in off-island travel assistance to medical/mental health appointments.  Requests over $750.00 will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis.
