Join Metro’s Public Safety Advisory Committee (PSAC). Metro is seeking applicants to participate on our transit Public Safety Advisory Committee which will work to review, comment, and provide input on how the agency can reimagine public safety on our system.

We are looking for individuals from our communities who regularly ride Metro and are committed to supporting the agency in fulfilling its Public Safety Mission Statement, to “safeguard the transit community by taking a holistic, equitable and welcoming approach to public safety, in recognition that each individual is entitled to a safe, dignified and human experience.” Metro also seeks to ensure that the perspectives of youth, women, seniors and those with disabilities are represented. Please note, members serving on the PSAC are not required to be U.S. citizens.

The committee will be composed of individuals who can contribute their relevant experience as riders and expertise in:

  • Racial justice
  • Equitable transit
  • Public safety reform
  • Law enforcement
  • Victims’ rights
  • Mental health
  • Homelessness
  • Social services

Applications for Metro’s Public Safety Advisory Committee will be accepted until November 30, 2022.
