People's experience of safety, security, and comfort while riding public transit can vary drastically based on their external identities like gender, age, race and ethnicity, ability, LGBTQ+ status, religion, and more.

Following this session, we invite you to attend the We All Belong Roundtable Discussion for an in-depth, interactive discussion with our presenters.
