< 1 min read

Gang-Involved	In some cases, clients with gang-involvement may have difficulty obtaining employment if they are known as a gang member. In these cases, clients may need transportation resources to find employment elsewhere.
General Violence	Clients with a history of general violence may be likely to be mandated to attend anger management classes. They may need transportation resources to attend these classes, especially if the classes are not offered widely in the area.
Intimate Partner Violence	Clients with a history of IPV may be likely to be mandated to attend specialized treatment programming. They may need transportation resources to attend treatment sessions, especially if the programming is not offered in the area.
Serious Mental Illness	Many clients with serious mental illness do not have driver’s licenses and may experience greater difficulty obtaining transportation than other clients.
Substance Use Disorder	Clients with substance use disorder may be especially in need of transportation resources if their license has been suspended or revoked. They may also need transportation resources to attend substance use treatment.
