The YTA Turns One Year Old!
Have you heard about the Youth Transit Alliance?

We were born to do this.When I launched The Detroit Bus Company, I knew I wanted us to work on transit issues in the city and come up with some lasting solutions. When the Skillman Foundation approached us about launching the YTA, I couldn't believe it. We finally had the chance to do the big work we set out to do from the start.One year later, we've successfully given thousands of rides and made hundreds of kids smile when their bus rolled up to the curb to take them to opportunities It's a big deal. It's something that's been needed for a long time and we still have so far to go. But you gotta celebrate sometimes.Without further ado, here's the numbers:
