The California Transit Association has risen to the challenge of meeting both the external and internal communications needs of its members.  External outreach campaigns are designed to generate positive media coverage for public transit through the distribution of press releases and op-ed articles as part of traditional media relations activities.  Such ventures may be comprised solely of outreach conducted by the Association's Communications staff, or may involve large-scale coordinated campaigns enlisting the efforts of member organizations.  Internal outreach typically consists of a number of communications tools and publications designed to regularly provide members with invaluable informational reports and updates.

• Executive Director's Report: Issued weekly to keep members abreast of the latest legislative and regulatory issues, Association activities, and upcoming events
  
• Legislative Bulletins: Up-to-the minute news of pending legislation and mobilization announcements
  
• Funding Updates: The latest information on the status of the many different state-level funding sources for public transit

Publications

• Transit California Magazine: Published six times per year providing readers up-to-the-minute information on the latest trends and strategies for improving public transit; and is a valuable communications tool for agencies to share best practices and announce their news to other members and to our entire magazine readership
  
• Membership Directory and Resource Guide: An annual membership directory that offers member listings with complete contact information, association committee lists, and association services and resources
  
• Legislative Summary: An annual synopsis of state legislation affecting public transportation and the transit-relevant components of the state budget process
  
• Fare Summary Report: An annual repository of fares and pass rates collected from our association members

The Association strives to be a resource to its members and to that end produces electronic communications and print publications. These resources are a key benefit of Association membership.

Advertising opportunities are available in select publications.
