Valley Metro Designates Bus Fleet as 'Safe Places'
Valley Metro in Phoenix has added its entire 900-bus fleet to the “Safe Place” program for homeless, runaway and abused teens that previously included its 35 light rail stations. The nationwide program, managed in the Phoenix area by the Tumbleweed Center for Youth Development, supports young people in need of immediate health and safety resources. “Thanks to the support of our operating partners, the valley’s most vulnerable teenagers will now be able to access safety, shelter and stability in times of distress,” said Valley Metro Chief Executive Officer Scott Smith, back row fourth from right, who joined Phoenix Mayor Greg Stanton, Phoenix Vice Mayor Kate Gallego and other community representatives at the event.
