TARTA’s Hub of Hope initiative has been created to provide a space for local organizations to reach out to the public who need their services through the opening of the TARTA’s downtown transit Hub to the public.
Community Partners are invited to have a presence at the Hub to display their programs and provide outreach to TARTA customers. Any interested community partners can reach out to customer-relations@tarta.com for more information and availability.
