Walk A Child To School Day coming up - Wed., October 8
Communities around the country are organizing events for children and parents to walk to school as part of International Walk to School Week, October 6-10. Such events are excellent opportunities to discuss opportunities for increasing funding for pedestrian facilities and safety when TEA-21 is renewed. Currently only about 1% of federal funds are dedicated to pedestrian and bicycle projects through the Enhancements program.
A toolkit for organizing a local event, including a sample press release, a listing of health professionals and other allies in your area, and a walkability checklist may be found at WalkToSchoo.org.
