Support Persons

The GOVA Transit Support Person Assistance Card is a photo identification card that identifies the card holder as a person who, because of a disability, needs to be accompanied by a support person.

A support person is someone specifically employed or designated by an individual to assist with daily living needs, including travel. Upon payment of fare by or for the card holder, the Support Person Assistance Card permits one support person to travel with the card holder on GOVA Transit at no additional cost.

The Support Person Assistance Card applies only to GOVA Transit. Clients of GOVA Plus should complete this form if they plan to travel on conventional buses with a support person. GOVA Plus does not require a Support Person Assistance Card. 

Application forms are available at the GOVA Downtown Mobility Hub Information Kiosk, 9 Elm Street, Sudbury, or applications can be completed online.
