Non-Discrimination Policy

It is the policy of FACT to provide a work and business environment free from unlawful discrimination based on race, color, sex, gender (including gender identity and gender expression), creed, religion, national origin, age, marital status, ancestry, medical condition (AIDS/HIV, history of cancer), disability, genetic information, sexual orientation, or any other class protected under federal, state, or local law. Discrimination is any act, or any failure to act, which has the purpose or effect of limiting, excluding or denying a person employment opportunity because of membership in a class protected by law.

FACT is committed to investigating and resolving any complaints of discrimination. Retaliation for making a complaint or participating in the investigatory process is prohibited. Disciplinary action, up to and including termination, will be taken for improper behavior. Employees are expected to adhere to a standard of conduct that is respectful to all persons with the work environment.

RideFACT Rider Acknowledgement Statement

FACT is a nonprofit agency operating within San Diego County, and not part of a governmental transportation service, such as NCTD or MTS. Our mission is to assist seniors and others who are unable to find suitable transportation.

We began providing transportation in 2010, and have provided over 357,000 trips for medical, social or other purposes.

RideFACT transportation is subsidized by grant funding – the fare paid by riders is a very small share of the total cost. Therefore RideFACT transportation is only offered to those individuals who have no other suitable means of transportation.

FACT cannot guarantee that a trip will be available upon request.  Occasionally trips that have been confirmed may arrive late or be canceled due to reasons beyond FACT’s control.

RideFACT is a shared ride service.

We ask all our riders to read the above statements and comply with FACT’s Code of Conduct to be able to use our services.
