Ride Voucher Program
The Senior Ride Nashville Ride Voucher Program provides qualifying older adults in Davidson County with transportation support through third-party providers, like Lyft.
SRN Ride Voucher Program is currently utilizing Lyft Pass to get older adults where they need to go. Lyft Pass users must have reliable access to a smart phone and be able to use the Lyft app to qualify.

USING LYFT PASS with the SRN RIDE VOUCHER PROGRAM
Rider must be age 60 or older and a resident of Davidson County, Tennessee to qualify.
Rider will schedule their transportation using the Lyft app on their smart phone.
SRN will provide 4 round-trip ride vouchers (8 one-way trips) per month to any destination.
Each pass will be worth up to $12 for our standard program or $16 for our income-based program*. Please see information below about qualifying.
Rider can schedule trips using Lyft any day or time.
Rider will contact Lyft customer support directly to resolve any transportation issues for their ride as SRN has no control over Lyft scheduling or drivers.
Passes are tied to a phone number, so Rider will need to update SRN if they have a change in their phone number.
After 6 months of inactivity, passes will be paused until we hear from the Rider.
SRN staff will only be able to answer questions during our business hours: Monday-Friday, 8:30am-5:00pm.
Lyft Silver is a simplified version of the app that can help with planning transportation. It is free and can be used by anyone that has a Lyft account.
Lyft works very well most of the time; however, we recommend the Rider has the phone number of a cab company or another transportation backup in case there is an issue with Lyft that cannot be resolved in a timely manner.
*Income-based Pricing
Riders qualify for the income-based program if they meet one of the following:
Household income at or below 200% of the Federal Poverty Level (FPL) (currently $31,300 for an individual, $42,300 for two, $53,300 for three), OR
Enrollment in a recognized income-based assistance program, such as SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program), TANF (Temporary Assistance for Needy Families), or similar programs.
SRN will require documentation of income (such as recent tax returns, pay stubs, or benefit statements) or proof of participation in an eligible assistance program to qualify.
