Not One More Girl (NOMG) is a BIPOC youth-led initiative in partnership with community based organizations and local transit authorities to end gender-based violence.

It is the first community-driven Bay Area initiative to address sexual harassment and gender-based violence on public transportation that includes art, cultural strategy, policy change, and youth leadership. This ongoing initiative was co-created with local Black and Latinx artists and youth and seeks to disrupt the norms perpetuating gender-based violence and bystander inaction on public transportation.

This initiative works outside the traditional structure of police response to ensure riders have access to community options and to reimagine safety, especially for Black and brown gender expansive youth. The NOMG initiative artwork was unveiled in 2021 and 2023, seen and experienced by transit dependent riders and visitors operating throughout five counties.

A radical safety and violence-prevention vision is required to secure liberation and freedom for BIPOC women, girls, and gender-expansive individuals on public transportation and in their daily lives – Betti Ono will continue to champion new local, state, and national solutions to make this a reality.
