Imagine a program where children gain confidence and independence simply by learning to navigate their city using public transit. Tammy Miller, the visionary executive director of ATX Kids Club, joins us on Transit Tangents to share how her Northeast public transit experiences inspired her to create this unique initiative in Austin, Texas. Through year-round adventures and field trips, ATX Kids Club encourages kids to explore their city with a sense of wonder, while also addressing and transforming perceptions about the safety and benefits of public transportation in Austin.
Join as we uncover the heartwarming stories of young campers who, through mastering the public bus system, not only develop a sense of independence but also end up guiding their parents on bus routes! We discuss the lifelong advantages of early public transit exposure, from financial savings to environmental stewardship, and the expanded horizons it brings. Tammy’s efforts reveal the hidden potential of public transit to shape a more accessible and sustainable future for Austin, embedding valuable life skills in the city's next generation. Don't miss this insightful conversation that showcases the incredible impact ATX Kids Club is making on the community.
