Now Available: Mental Health Resources for Transit Workers

FTA has compiled online resources to support the public transit industry during challenging times, covering topics such as mental health, wellness and self-care, suicide prevention, and active-shooter preparedness.

Additionally, FTA issued Safety Advisory 22-4: Suicide Prevention Signage on Public Transit to recommend that transit agencies apply best practices to their suicide prevention signage and messaging campaigns. The advisory aims to reduce suicide attempts and for agencies to assess suicide event data to monitor the impact of signage.

FTA encourages public transit workers to share these online resources widely with the transit agencies in their networks.
