Measuring Your Wheelchair for a Wheelchair Van
When modifying a wheelchair van, it is important that the correct measurements of the person in the wheelchair be taken. This will ensure that the correct modifications are done on your adaptive vehicle.
Questions to Ask Your Mobility Consultant
We understand that you or a family member may be in an unanticipated situation that has had a profound impact on your lives and may have you feeling vulnerable and alone. This is uncharted territory for you - and we're here to help you navigate your way through the process of selecting a wheelchair accessible vehicle. Asking a sales consultant the right questions can help make your experience more enjoyable, as well as enhance your knowledge about modified vehicles.

Transporting a Child with Disabilities

Veterans - What Ride-Away Does For Them
According to the United States Department of Veteran Affairs (www.va.gov), of the 25 million veterans currently alive, nearly three out of every four served during a war or an official period of hostility. Additionally, about a quarter of the nation's population - approximately 70 million people - are potentially eligible for VA benefits and services because they are Veterans, family members, or survivors of Veterans.
