Transportation
As a resident of Porter County, you can request our transportation services to pick you up and take you to doctor’s appointments, therapy sessions, or other community locations. Our curb to curb service includes a wheelchair accessible fleet of vehicles available 7 am – 5 pm, Monday – Friday. OE’s fleet of vehicles is supported in part by a grant from NIRPC and the Federal Transportation Commission.
