> 
> Thanks to a donation from the Department of Transportation and FEMA, GCRTA was given cloth masks to provide to our employees and riders. Now through September, our staff will be conducting "need a mask, take a mask" events. Riders will receive a mask, CDC instructions for wearing and washing, and information on GCRTA’s mobile ticketing app.

> Transit Police collaborate to help homeless during COVID-19
> 
> As the shelter in place orders were issued in March, our area homeless faced having nowhere to go for shelter. Instead, they began using GCRTA buses, trains, or stations as their place of shelter. As a result, our Transit Police collaborated with FrontLine Service and the Northeast Ohio Coalition for the Homeless to find a solution.

> Benefits of Transit Police
> 
> In recent weeks, GCRTA has received questions regarding the funding of our Transit Police. It is important for the communities we serve to know the benefits of our Transit Police. Due to the unique nature of our service, they have the ability to work across multiple jurisdictions in order to protect the transit service we provide. They also protect our passengers, employees, and property.
