ABOUT: RightRides organizes volunteers to operate a fleet of up to 6 cars that are donated by Zipcar. In our RightRides program, we offer women, LGBTQ and gender nonconforming individuals a free, late-night ride home to ensure their safe commute to or through high-risk areas. We started RightRides in 2004 in direct response to an increase in assaults on women walking home by themselves. The mission of RightRides For Women’s Safety, Inc. is to build safer communities by ending gender-based harassment and sexual assault. We work towards this by community organizing and offering direct service, safety education and advocacy programs. In our Safe Walk program, we offer walking escorts for any one who doesn't want to walk alone. We are also a founding member of New Yorkers for Safe Transit, which will pursue coalition building and policy change work to increase safety in mass transit. Our motto is, "Because Getting Home Safely Shouldn't Be A Luxury" and we recognize that many women and LGBTQ people do not have the extra funds to take a taxi and walking home from public transportation late at night can increase one's risk of sexual harassment and gender-based assault. Since 2004, RightRides has driven 2,000 Riders safely home. You do not need to feel threatened to call RightRides.
