Transit passes and rides for job seekers after 9 years as a school bus driver

I need a cheap way to get to several appointments. This is my first time dealing with any of this. I do not want to be late. Are there discounted passes?

Thanks for writing this out. I went through something close to it 8 months ago, and it settled down once I kept a simple log of every call and form.

Our transit agency has a reduced-fare pass for people with low income. The application took a week.
