Welocme to PTO and the NY Forum! Call the facility and they will be able to tell you what transportation services are available. That would at least be a start. Good luck!

I know that there is something out of Rochester for that area, but I am not recalling at the moment. I will research and get back at you. Also have your loved one ask Family Services at the facility, they can provide assistance.

There is a member from another site that travels from Rochester to Clinton (main) which is relatively close to Altona. I have e-mailed to see if that is where she still travels to and the particulars. I will get in tounch when I hear back.

Please try to have him ask about the "free bus" program again with a chaplain at his facility.

Hi!

Sorry this took so long in getting to you! Sue Porter (hopefully she is still working there) at Cephas Judicial Process Commission in Rochester, call her. I do not have and haven't been forwarded the number. If there is not transportation to Altona, maybe they can link you with a bus that goes close to there.

Good luck, let me know how this turns out, I will keep my feelers out for you! Hopefully we can help get you there for a visit!
