Besse on Transportation

"I would look at transportation services as a comprehensive program. One thing I am working on now is improving our bus system in Winston Salem. Our Winston Salem Transporation chair is a professional in the area of MH/DD/SAS. He understands that issue and we are allies. It needs to happen in every urgan area and we need to fill in the gaps in our rural areas to get people to their health care needs. We need to expand rural bus services to more of our rural areas so it is more possible for people without a car to get to where they can go."
