NV Rides is a network of service providers aiming to enhance and improve volunteer transportation programs throughout the region. In partnership with Fairfax County and Jewish Council for the Aging (JCA), with additional support from The Community Foundation for Northern Virginia, The Jewish Community Center of Northern Virginia is administering this community-wide initiative so that more non-driving older adults will be able to get where they need to go at no cost, and “age in place” for as long as possible.
