Transportation Equity Webinar

On September 30, 2024 CivicWell held a webinar on Transportation Equity. The event was moderated by CivicWell CEO Bernadette Austin. We were joined by California Transportation Commission Associate Deputy Director of Equity and Engagement C. Sequoia Erasmus, Caltrans Deputy Director of Equity & Tribal Affairs Nailah Pope-Harden, and California Foundation for Independent Living Centers Statewide Community Manager Russell Dawson Rawlings.

This webinar provides insights on transportation equity from advocates and policymakers at the state and local levels. What does transportation equity look like in practice? What are the opportunities, resources, and best practices to help transportation agencies and local governments center equity in transportation planning and implementation? How can advocates, planners, and policymakers collaborate more effectively on equitable transportation policies and initiatives? How can planners and policymakers improve community engagement to be more inclusive of the people most impacted by transportation infrastructure investment?

This webinar series is sponsored by AARP California.
