OC Next STEP

What is Next STEP?

Next STEP (Safe Transportation Education Program) is a project of Orange County’s Safe Route to School (SRTS) program.

Next STEP builds on previous efforts to provide select project schools in Orange County with FREE resources, activities, events, and assessments to encourage families to walk and roll to school safely and more often.

Not a project school? You can still access free Next STEP Resources below.

OCTA has extended the program that allows youth aged 6 to 18 to ride OC Bus for free to school, after-school activities, jobs and more. Passes are available only through partnering K-12 schools or upon parent request.

Next STEP is a partnership project between OCTA and the Orange County Health Care Agency. Next STEP is funded by a California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) Active Transportation Planning (ATP) grant and a SCAG REAP grant.
