East Texas Just Transportation Alliance
News
Basic Information
Contact Information
In the past year, the East Texas Just Transportation Alliance has been instrumental in the initiation of several important initiatives to improve transportation for people in East Texas. ETJTA worked to develop a plan for a Job Access Reverse Commute (JARC, a federal fund primarily designed to meet the needs of welfare recipients in obtaining and maintaining employment) project in the region. ETJTA also helped in the formation and ongoing work of the GETTA taskforce, which works with the Tyler District Office of the Texas Department of Transportation to improve transportation coordination. Along these lines, the group, in partnership with the East Texas Center for Independent Living, received TxDOT Funding for Transportation Coordination (PDF). Current plans for ETJTA include organizing a Transportation Summit for the East Texas region and the development of an online "trip planner" to be used as a tool for individuals and social service providers.
Currently Moving Ahead:
A viable, self-sustaining, citizen advocate group that takes an active
role in the transportation decision-making process in their community.
Wanted:
People with disabilities, senior citizens, low-income citizens and any
other Texan who wants to make a change.
