ACAT elects 2024 Chair, Vice-Chairs
​Earlier this week, the Advisory Committee on Accessible Transit (ACAT) elected its new Chair and Vice-Chairs for 2024. I want to congratulate Anita Dressler, who returns as Chair, and Betty Rivington-Law and Erica Tanny who serve as Vice-Chairs. The TTC is grateful for the recommendations that ACAT has provided over the years, and we look forward to collaborating with the new ACAT executive committee.

Mental health and wellness support is available
​Wednesday, January 24 is Bell Let’s Talk Day, a reminder for all of us to take the time to focus on our own well-being. In the hustle bustle of our busy lives, our own mental health can sometimes fall to the sidelines. Know that your well-being is always a top priority here at the TTC. If you need support, our Employee and Family Assistance Program (EFAP) and Trauma Assist Program are just a call away at 1-800-572-0039. You can also visit the MyEAP app or workhealthlife.com.

Stay safe and please take the time for care for yourself.
