Transit Alliance is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization with an 19-year history in Colorado. TA works to empower citizens to lead the transformation of Colorado’s mobility future. Since its founding in 1997, Transit Alliance’s primary mission has been to educate Denver Metro region residents about transportation choices and the effect of transportation on health, equity, and sustainability.

Transportation ranks among the top issues for Coloradans. How do we address the growing need to maintain our system, expand our choices and address the societal issues tied with growing older and trying to afford our Colorado lifestyle? In this changing landscape, one organization has been engaging citizens, cities, counties, businesses and other nonprofits to keep the conversation moving and build champions to support creative solutions.
