Social Services Transportation Advisory Council

The Social Services Transportation Advisory Council (SSTAC) oversees work on federal and state requirements and local concerns regarding transportation accessibility issues for the elderly and persons with disabilities. The Social Services Advisory Council reports to the Transportation Committee, which in turn reports to the SANDAG Board of Directors.
 
SSTAC meetings are generally bimonthly. At least once a year, the council holds a public hearing to solicit input on transportation needs from older individuals, persons with disabilities, and persons with limited means, in accordance with the California Public Utilities Code. The next public hearing will be at the July 2025 SSTAC meeting. Members of the public are invited to provide comments and input on transportation needs at any meeting of the SSTAC.

Contact Brian Lane at 619.699.7331 or brian.lane@sandag.org with any questions.
