The Ambassadors provide states and territories with hands-on technical assistance in the development and implementation of coordinated human service transportation plans. The Ambassadors also work to build awareness among decision-makers, service providers, and consumers on key issues related to human service transportation and coordination, including those requirements and opportunities created by SAFETEA-LU.
The Ambassadors' regions mirror the OMB's Standard Federal Regions used by the Federal Transit Administration, except for the Virgin Islands.
