HopSkipDrive solves complex transportation challenges where there is a heightened need for safety, equity, and care.
We help get students to their destinations, safely and on time. Our technology connects school partners to a network of highly vetted drivers with small vehicles and wheelchair-accessible vehicles, complementing the yellow bus, filling in gaps, and enabling schools to support student transportation needs.

Our partnerships with school districts, child welfare agencies and nonprofits ensure equitable educational access for our most vulnerable populations, including youth in foster care, youth experiencing homelessness, and youth with special needs.

What the Team is Saying

I am proud to make a direct impact on student's lives. Knowing that a single conversation can change the trajectory of their school experience and ensure they get the safe transportation they need is incredibly rewarding. Every small interaction brings me closer to making a meaningful difference in the lives of students who need it most.
