It’s the perfect partnership as “Hope Rides” is now offering provide free Uber rides to survivors who reach out for services. It started recently with CASA (Community Action Stops Abuse) and Uber in Pinellas County and will expand.

How will it work? CASA will call ride-shares on behalf of survivors, or send vouchers so they can call their own. The mission has always been to challenge the societal acceptance of all forms of domestic violence. CASA stands up to silence through advocacy, prevention, intervention, and support services.

CASA can be reached on its 24-hour hotline at 727-895-4912 and via an online chat feature at casapinellas.org. Walk-ins are welcome at the Family Justice Center at 1011 1st Ave. N in St. Petersburg.
