The mission of the national Safe Routes Partnership is to advance safe walking and rolling to and from schools and in everyday life. Our local Safe Routes to School Coalition enables people through education and partnerships to build safe routes in our community. Recently, we’ve encouraged improved streets and sidewalks in the Central and Greenwood neighborhoods. Each month at our Wednesday Walks program at Central and Greenwood schools we focus on themes which encourage our children to move safely on our streets and sidewalks.

If you would like to join the coalition, please contact:
