The Latinos In Transit Employee Resource Group (ERG) Program is designed to support the formation, development, and sustainability of ERGs within public transportation agencies. The program's purpose is to provide ERGs with the tools, resources, and guidance necessary to foster an inclusive work environment that promotes the values, culture, and heritage of Latinos in the transportation industry. By aligning these ERGs with Latinos In Transit, the program ensures that the groups meet compliance standards, achieve their organizational goals, and contribute to the professional growth of Latino and non-Latino employees alike.
The program also aims to create a national network of ERGs that share best practices, provide mentorship opportunities, and engage in community-building efforts, all while promoting diversity, equity, and inclusion in the public transportation sector.
Discover how to effectively support and enhance your Employee Resource Groups with our comprehensive toolkit:
The Employee Resource Group Toolkit is intended to empower employees of transit agencies and organizations with structured guidance, best practices, and actionable strategies to establish and enhance ERGs.
