2023–2026 Coordinating Council on Access and Mobility Strategic Plan
On October 27, 2022, the FTA convened the Coordinating Council on Access and Mobility (CCAM), a federal interagency council that coordinates funding and provides expertise on human services transportation for people with disabilities, older adults, and individuals of low income, and officially adopted the 2023-2026 CCAM Strategic Plan. The plan prioritizes expanding safe access to transit, providing affordable mobility options and sets a framework for collaboration among CCAM grantees at all levels and across jurisdictions.
The plan was created through collective engagement among leadership, staff, and stakeholders from across the CCAM partner agencies during 10 federal working sessions held from February to June 2022. In addition, the CCAM held four listening sessions from May to June 2022, where each CCAM agency invited stakeholders, including national, state, and local agencies, organizations, and associations, who provided valuable input.
The plan required a collective effort from CCAM agencies and stakeholders to develop; from 2023 to 2026, the same coordination will be harnessed to implement its strategies to improve transportation access for all.
* Update: Within the 2023–2026 CCAM Strategic Plan, Activity 1.2 lists the CCAM research program name as, “Mobility Access, Links to Opportunity,” which has since been updated to, “Mobility, Access & Transportation Insecurity: Creating Links to Opportunity Research and Demonstration Program.”
