Access Advisory Committee Executive Board

The Access Advisory Committee to the MBTA (AACT) is a consumer organization with the mission of improving transit access and services for people with disabilities. Its membership is open to people with disabilities, senior citizens, and representatives of human services agencies.

AACT has an elected leadership, the AACT Executive Board, which works closely with its membership to give the MBTA advice and make recommendations on accessible services and projects. All AACT Executive Board meetings are open to the public and are generally held on the fourth Wednesday of each month (dates vary in November and December) at the following locations and times:
