Guest guest Posted January 5, 2013 Report Share Posted January 5, 2013 I know. Unicorn did try to find a location in Broward but just couldn't find something that had all of the components that they were looking for. There will be transportation depots throughout Broward for those who need it. Stacey HoaglundFamily Support SpecialistFamily Network on DisabilitiesP.O.
