Homeless Survey Template: Transportation

The Transportation survey template helps organizations measure whether transportation services are effectively removing one of the most common barriers to housing stability and economic mobilitygetting from point A to point B.

For individuals experiencing homelessness or housing instability, reliable transportation is rarely taken for granted. Missing a bus or lacking fare can mean missing a job interview, a court date, a medical appointment, or a meeting with a case manager. These missed connections compound the challenges that already make it difficult to regain stability.

This template captures participant feedback on the accessibility, reliability, and usefulness of transportation services. It helps programs understand whether rides are available when needed, whether drivers and staff treat participants with dignity, and whether the service is actually connecting people to the resources they need.

Use this template to identify transportation gaps in your service area, demonstrate the impact of transportation support to funders, and continuously improve your program's responsiveness to participant needs. Transportation data paired with outcome tracking can reveal powerful connections between mobility and housing success.
