Strengthen local organizing, mobilize key constituencies, and build a base for transit advocacy.
Grassroots organizing is essential to making public transportation a public and political priority—translating people power into political power. To build and maintain this power, we must organize in unprecedented numbers, and we need our movements to be equipped to create lasting change. We will engage the most effective advocates in communities where the conditions for transformative change are ripest and invest in their ability to win by building their capacity, connecting them to build a nationwide community and movement, and creating platforms and convenings where they can share knowledge.
