PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE

Thanks to the outstanding leadership of our past President, Lydia Grose, and all of the hard work from the most dedicated members of the COMTO Philadelphia Chapter,  we’ve won the “Chapter of the Year” and “Best COMTO Community Engagement” awards for the 2021-2022 term year. As the newly elected President of the COMTO Philadelphia Chapter, I look forward to the challenge of repeating these accomplishments. These are big shoes to fill and I’m sure we’ll succeed because I have the best supporting team possible.

I will continue the initiatives of our previous Executive Committee, align our work with the National COMTO Office and expand on ways to reach our unique communities. In the remaining year of 2022, the COMTO Philadelphia Chapter will continue to explore new and engaging programs, relationships, and a creative space to energize and empower inclusive voices to be heard within the transportation industry and from our partners. Particular attention will be placed on reaching out to our youth for training, engagement, and mentoring. 

COMTO Philadelphia strive to ensure new ways to best serve our members, our community, and our multi-modal transportation industry through sharing and inclusiveness. COMTO is the Voice of Equity in Transportation, and our Philadelphia Chapter will be looking to expand our voice within the region and the communities we serve.

Daniel Villanueva, President
