Beyond the Bus: Inclusion Matters

Inclusion is important for everyone. Transportation plays a big role in inclusion by giving everyone equal access to the same opportunities of those who do not use public transit. This might mean a doctor appointment, getting groceries, or even getting your hair done at the local salon.

This event focused on inclusion and the role public transit plays to ensure everyone has equal opportunities to access the services they need to have a productive life.
