July is Park and Recreation Month! Walkable, bikeable park access means double the opportunity for physical activity – on the way to the park and within it! 

The Safe Routes to Parks Activating Communities program developed and delivered a webinar to support its ten communities in creating safe and equitable access to parks and open and green spaces using the Safe Routes to Parks Action Framework.

Safety and comfort in public spaces should be the norm. Unfortunately, street harassment exists, with inevitable effects on Safe Routes to School. What does this look like and which communities are affected most by street harassment? 

In too many neighborhoods, local stores carry no fresh produce or other healthy options, but getting to healthy foods is dangerous and inconvenient due to unsafe walking conditions and lack of access to public transit or private vehicles.

This webinar introduces the concept of Safe Routes to Healthy Food, that is, the work of overcoming the transportation barriers to accessing nutritious foods. 

In honor of Bike Month, this webinar brings three perspectives on how to help families bicycle together: Family Biking Workshops and classes for all stages of family biking; Parent/youth summer programming with bike share; and Open Streets events.
