✨ Expanding my possibilities! ✨ Obtained my certification as a Disdvantaged Business Enterprise in the State of Washington on July 19, 2024. I learned that getting certified with Los Angeles Metro as a DBE pre-qualified me to a quick vetting process with the Washington State Office of Minority & Women's Business Enterprises (OMWBE). It only took me about two weeks to get my DBE application approved. Now working on the rest of the certification alphabet soup! (WBE, MBE, etc.) This means that I can be included in the government project pursuits in the State of Washington as a DBE subcontractor. Exciting times!!! 📣 #LAMetro #CertifiedDBE #Washington #OMWBE #ENVISIONtraining #sustainabilityassessment #projectmanagement #constructionmanagement #pickme

Our team has been hard at work this summer delivering for our client Los Angeles Metro. Go Metro!
🚨CLIENT UPDATE🚨 This summer Metro & NSA have been doing BIG things together! 1. NSA managed Metro's State of the Agency Event, where incoming Metro Board Chair & LA County Supervisor Janice Hahn emphasized the agencies' future goals for growth, safety, and community ties. At the event our team handled attendee registration, food & beverage, and more. 2. NSA recently co-led regional community meetings for Metro's I-605 Corridor Improvement Project, where we shared information about the project's goals and gathered community input. The community's feedback will help shape the project. 3. NSA has made significant progress building participation in Metro's Mobility Wallet pilot program. The Mobility Wallet is an all-in-one mobility account payment solution currently offered to low-income LA County residents. Participants can receive up to $1800 to spend on a variety of shared transportation services, and demand to participate in the program has skyrocketed! Thank you, Los Angeles Metro, for highlighting these exciting updates in your latest newsletter. We look forward to continuing our I-605 & Mobility Wallet work this fall! #marketing #community #branding #service #businessdevelopment #partnerships #losangeles #southerncalifornia #grassroots #events #projects

Throughout June and July, my colleagues Dr. Emily Grise, Dr Willem Klumpenhouwer, PhD and I conducted site visits and interviews of the five participating transit agencies in the Transit Cooperative Research Program study on the impact of Substance Use on Transit. With each agency, we interviewed the agency's data, communications, occupational health and safety, operations and facilities divisions, and outreach and law enforcement partners, as this complex topic involves a multidisciplinary approach within each transit agency. For this study, we also conducted ride-alongs on the transit system with front-line outreach specialists and law enforcement in Portland, Denver, Los Angeles, Chicago, and Philadelphia. Spending 10 nights with front-line staff provided extensive insights into the program approaches, opportunities, and challenges on this complex subject. The ride-alongs included shifts that ended at 3 a.m. and, at one point, started at 3 a.m. on another night. Amongst the five cities, we met approximately 120 individuals from a significant cross-section (transit agency technical staff, front-line operations staff, outreach partners, ambassadors, public health staff, Police officers and community advocates). The study team is very grateful for the support we have received from the contributing transit agencies, especially our primary contacts including Marissa Clarke (she/her) at TriMet, Steve Martingano at Denver RTD Transit Police, Stephen Tu at Los Angeles Metro, Kenneth A. Divers at Southeastern Pennsylvania Transportation Authority (SEPTA) and Nancy-Ellen Zusman at Chicago Transit Authority. The final report will be available in the spring of 2025.
