ABOUT

ETHRA’s mission is to help people improve their quality of life and maintain their independence.

As a public, non-profit agency, ETHRA has operated transportation programs since the mid 1970s. Approximately 100 vehicles are now on the road every day helping individuals access community and health services. Drivers travel throughout the region and clock over three million miles a year. Public and medical transportation are essential to help thriving, active communities.

ETHRA is one of nine HRAs organized under The Tennessee Human Resource Agency Act of 1973. The Agency is locally governed and works in partnership with communities, local officials, government programs and businesses. Corporate offices are headquartered in Knox County with satellite offices throughout the region. Approximately 400 staff work throughout the region.
