Speak Up Broward is the MPO's interactive and creative approach to public engagement through which the public voices opinions on the transportation system. In 2014, the MPO hosted ""Let's Talk Transportation"" - a series of four televised eTownHall meetings. Through the Program for Empowering People, the MPO worked with community based organizations to further the MPO's reach to engage traditionally under-represented communities in a conversation about Broward's transportation future. The MPO hosted five meetings of the Broward Partners Group, and organized dozens of Speakers Bureau events to raise awareness of the eTownHall meetings and transportation funding issues. The first phase of Speak Up Broward concluded in early 2015.
