Which of the following is NOT listed as a resource available to the O&M specialist?

In O&M practice, the resources you rely on to support independent travel come from agencies that directly facilitate access to transportation, community programs, and official coordination. The transportation department provides information about transit services, schedules, and accessibility features that help plan routes. The parks and recreation department offers access to public spaces, facilities, and programming that are accessible to travelers with vision loss. Government officials help with policy, funding, and interagency coordination to improve community mobility. Local police departments are not typically listed as a regular O&M resource because their primary role is safety enforcement and emergency response rather than providing mobility services or planning information. They may be consulted in safety situations, but they aren’t a standard ongoing resource for mobility access.
