Active Campaign: Youth Bus Passes
Genesis has been actively involved in transit issues in the Bay Area. Service cuts to operators, such as AC Transit, affect thousands of youth, seniors, and working class people — those that rely on public transit the most, often as their sole means of transportation.
Learn about some of our accomplishments in this area, as well as the important work that lies ahead.
