Opportunity Pass at Risk | New Orleans News
from New Orleans News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
New Orleans City Council is rallying to save the Opportunity Pass — a vital free transit program for teens and young adults that’s already helped 11,000 riders connect to jobs, school, and opportunity. With federal funds drying up and budget cuts already slashing its funding, the council has passed a resolution pledging support if they can find new cash — public or private — to keep it alive. Ride New Orleans, which runs the program, says city backing unlocks doors they couldn’t open alone, and with rising demand since enrollment closure announcements, this initiative remains critical for building an equitable, mobile workforce for the next generation.
