Right Rides

Join the Board of Directors and help grow RightRides into a leading non-profit! The mission of RightRides For Women's Safety, Inc. is to reduce the risk of harassment and sexual assault by community organizing, offering direct service programs, plus fostering greater safety awareness and individual empowerment in our related educational programs.

In our central program, RightRides, we offer women, transpeople and gender queer
individuals a free, late-night ride home to insure their safe commute to or through
high-risk areas. We also organize a Safe Walk program for any one who doesn't want to
walk alone. Our related educational programs include self-defense classes and
neighborhood safety meetings featuring local leaders in crime prevention.
