Mission and programs · 2024

Mission

The Safe Routes to School National Partnerships mission is to advance safe walking and bicycling to and from schools, and in daily life, to improve the health and well-being of Americas children and to foster the creation of livable, sustainable communities.

  • The National Partnership makes available free webinars, publications with best practices and information on the health and safety benefits of walking and bicycling to schools and in daily life, and low-cost fee-for-service technical assistance to help community leaders, parents and other individuals understand how to design safe and healthy transportation systems that reduce crashes and increase physical activity. We also put on an in-person conference in even years and a virtual summit in odd years for Safe Routes practitioners around the country.

    Expenses $661,470 · Grants $38,694

  • Through the Safe Routes to Parks Activating Communities Program, the National Partnership provides grants and tailored technical assistance to help communities develop and begin to implement Safe Routes to Parks action plans. The action plans provide clear steps to improve local park access and safety for people walking, biking, and rolling.

    Expenses $275,808 · Grants $20,000

  • This encompasses the William Penn grant, the TCE grant, the DC VZ grant, and the GM grant. The National Partnership leads and supports state and local coalitions across the country that engage and elevate community voices, analyze and research public policies, and recommend policy and systems changes. These engagements prioritize equity and transportation justice, with a goal of making our streets safe and accessible for people of all ages, abilities, and backgrounds.

On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those.
