Hosted by WALKSacramento in partnership with

Featuring Safe Routes to School National Partnership.
After a successful Regional Safe Routes to School Summit and a well-attended walk audit training workshop, WALKSacramento is hosting a third training opportunity. The workshop, developed as a result of input from our Safe Routes to School partners, will provide you with the skills to create, enact, and implement policies at all levels that support safe, active, and healthy school environments.
Policies that support student safety and health goals are an integral part of successful and sustainable Safe Routes to School programs. Policy is a great way to ensure that Safe Routes to School programs and practices remain a priority. This workshop will provide our Safe Routes partners with the skills to create, enact, and implement policies at all levels that support safe, active, and healthy school environments.
The Safe Routes to School Policy Development Workshop will feature Sara Zimmerman of the Safe Routes to School National Partnership. Sara will lead a comprehensive and interactive training on:
Why policy matters for Safe Routes to School and coordination between schools and local jurisdictions
Developing school district policies and working with districts to successfully enact them
Developing and advocating for city and county policies related to safe routes to school
Liability in Safe Routes to School programs
