Updated Question and Answer Document on the JARC, New Freedom and Section 5310 Program (April 2008)
The goal of the Job Access and Reverse Commute program (JARC) is to improve access to transportation services to employment and employment related activities for welfare recipients and eligible low-income individuals and to transport residents of urbanized areas and nonurbanized areas to suburban employment opportunities. Toward this goal, the Federal Transit Administration provides financial assistance for transportation services planned, designed, and carried out to meet the transportation needs of eligible low-income individuals, and of reverse commuters regardless of income. The program requires coordination of Federally-assisted programs and services in order to make the most efficient use of Federal resources. For additional information, please contact the FTA Office of Transit Programs at (202) 366-2053.
