Serving York Region

Routes Connecting Communities is a York Region community based not-for-profit organization dedicated to helping people since 1989. We provide safe, affordable, compassionate, and timely transportation, food deliveries, connections and referrals to community programs and services, friendly phone calls, opportunities for social connection, and technology support.
