A Helping Hand Along the Way

Travelers Aid International is an international network of social service agencies, airports and train stations representing a safety net to individuals of all abilities to connect with a support system or place.

TAI is committed to uplifting the human experience, using the skills and talents of a diverse group of volunteers and staff. Our programs share a combined passion and desire to create a culture of caring and support. We succeed when a family living on the streets gets a roof over their head, when a young woman escapes from a sex trafficking ring, when a hungry child can stop wondering where his or her next meal will come from, or when a traveler unable to navigate the airport alone receives a friendly guide. This ongoing challenge to seek a better life for those in need continues to motivate us — and we will always strive to be “A Helping Hand Along the Way.”

Our Mission and Vision

The Travelers Aid International mission is to aid people in transit who are in distress, through our direct services and through services provided by our member organizations.

Our History

Beginning in the 1880s, spurred in part by organizations like the YWCA, Travelers Aid programs were formed in major U.S. cities specifically to provide protection for women and girls traveling alone.
