Apply by September 6 to join our Public Safety Advisory Committee (PSAC)!

We're seeking applicants to participate in our transit Public Safety Advisory Committee (PSAC). Formed in 2021 in response to the racial unrest throughout the country following the murder of George Floyd, the committee is designed to review, comment, and provide input on the agency's work to improve public safety on the system. We know that safety is a complex topic with no single definition, and the PSAC's contributions are key to ensuring that everyone feels safe, welcomed, and respected on our system.

The PSAC is made up of 15people and meets monthly over a two-year term, with the potential for additional subcommittee meetings.

Now, we're looking for seven individuals who can contribute their relevant experience, not only as riders, but also as experts in racial justice, equitable transit, public safety reform, law enforcement, victims' rights, mental health, homelessness and social services. We're also interested in ensuring that perspectives of youth, women, seniors and people living with disabilities are represented.

To apply, visit metro.net/about/public-safety-advisory-committee. The deadline to apply is September 6.

Members serving on the PSAC are not required to be U.S. citizens,but must be residents of LA County.
