Lenna Kottke, Via’s executive director, was recently interviewed on the city of Boulder’s Inside Boulder program and discussed the organization’s name change with show co-hosts, Jennifer Bray and Patrick von Keyserling.
Kottke explained that the organization had outgrown the name Special Transit as it no longer provided a good description of the breadth of services offered. “We’re much more than a provider of rides,” she said.
She said Via was a one-call resource for people with limited mobility and their families as well as for communities that were committed to access and inclusion for all their citizens.
The interview appears on the March 30 show and begins at 14:37. You can watch it here.
