The Regional Transportation Commission of Southern Nevada (RTC) has generously donated fixed route bus passes to the Armed Forces Chamber, aimed at supporting veterans participating in Veterans Treatment Court programs across several courts in the Clark County area. These passes will be distributed directly to veterans during court sessions, program meetings, or by pre-arranged appointments, addressing critical transportation challenges faced by participants.


Many veterans enrolled in programs such as the North Las Vegas Justice Court Veterans Treatment Court face significant barriers due to lack of transportation. These challenges hinder their ability to attend court hearings, access healthcare services, seek employment, and engage in educational opportunities. By integrating RTC Fixed Route Transit Passes into their support services, the Armed Forces Chamber aims to alleviate these hardships and enhance veterans' ability to reintegrate into civilian life successfully.


Andre' Haynes, CEO and Founder of the Armed Forces Chamber, expressed gratitude for the partnership with RTC: "Transportation is a fundamental need for our veterans, especially those navigating the complexities of Veterans Treatment Court. The generous donation of bus passes from RTC will directly support our efforts to empower veterans, improve access to essential services, and facilitate their journey towards stability and recovery."


The RTC, known for its regional oversight of public transportation and commitment to community support through initiatives like Southern Nevada Strong, continues to play a crucial role in enhancing accessibility and mobility for all residents, including veterans in need of specialized support.


The Armed Forces Chamber wishes to thank Raven at Sumnu Marketing for helping to facilitate this opportunity that will benefit dozens of veterans.
