Chittenden Area Transportation Management Association (CATMA) is a non-profit, membership-based, transportation management association serving Chittenden County.
They administer and manage customized, turn-key programs that offer a better way to get to work, save money, reduce parking challenges and congestion, and cut carbon emissions.

Their motto: We'll help you get there.
Champlain College is a founding member along with the other "Hill Institutions" of The University of Vermont (UVM) and The University of Vermont Medical Center (UVMMC - formerly Fletcher Allen).
