Right Rides

Kimberlynn Acevedo shared with us at Community Workshop 2 a valuable resource for getting home safely on late weekend nights: Right Rides.

From the website:
RightRides offers women and LGBTQ individuals a free, safe, late night ride home on Friday and Saturday nights from 11:59 PM - 3 AM, (early Saturday or Sunday morning) in 45 NYC neighborhoods across four NYC boroughs. To call for a ride, the dispatch number is (888) 215-SAFE (7233).

Since 2004, RightRides has driven nearly 4,000 riders safely home, thanks to hundreds of dedicated volunteers, our vehicle sponsor Zipcar and donations from individuals, foundations and community sponsors.

Learn more about the RightRides program, the areas we're serving in NYC and how you can get involved.
