RideW/Me

A point-to-point, peer-to-peer transportation solution for youth that shortens the pathways between youth and learning opportunities by helping them coordinate flexible transportation options; it provides peace-of-mind for concerned guardians; and it delivers invaluable information about the youth attending programs and events to service providers.

With RideW/Me, young people quickly find events that their peers are already attending, immediately access a range of transportation options – including financially accessible alternative shared-use mobility – and join their peers by indicating their estimated time of departure. This information becomes accessible to approved guardians and service providers.

This project grew out of the Transportation Moonshot work and is being continued to move forward weekly at Chicago Hack Night.
