There’s a New Partner in Town! How Public Libraries are Advancing Safe Routes Advocacy, Funding, and Programming
It’s been over two years since our first webinar about partnerships between libraries and Safe Routes to School programs – and a lot has happened since then! Join us to hear the latest updates on improving safety and access to public libraries, including an exciting new project with the Urban Libraries Council to develop a Safe Routes to Libraries framework. Speakers from Kansas City, Missouri and Baxter County, Arkansas will share how libraries are playing a critical role in transportation advocacy, infrastructure funding, and advancing the Safe Routes movement.
Featured Speakers:
- Kori Johnson, Senior Manager, Program and Engagement, Safe Routes Partnership
- Michael Kelley, Policy Director, BikeWalkKC
- Jamie Placht, Health and Wellbeing Specialist, Kansas City Public Library
- Kim Crow Sheaner, Director, Donald W. Reynolds Library System Serving Baxter County, Arkansas
