San Joaquin RTD Wins Two National Awards

San Joaquin Regional Transit District was honored to be recognized by two national awards.

The Government Finance Officers Association of the United States and Canada awarded RTD with the Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting for its Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR). Not only is this Certificate of Achievement the highest form of recognition in the area of governmental accounting and financial reporting, but this year marks 15 consecutive years in which RTD has won the GFOA award.

In addition to financial health, the American Heart Association 2018 Workplace Health Achievement Index announced that RTD reached Bronze level recognition for taking significant steps to build a culture of health in the workplace.  The Workplace Health Achievement Index recognizes organizations for efforts in implementing quality employee health programs in the workplace; it assesses the quality, comprehensiveness, and effectiveness of workplace health programs and the heart health of employees.

“We wanted to create a culture obsessed with financial sustainability, and a culture obsessed with wellness,” said RTD General Manager/CEO Donna DeMartino.  “I’m proud to see RTD recognized in this way.”
