Safe Routes to School
Safe routes to school promotes helmet, bike, and pedestrian safety in the community. We visit local at-risk schools to teach safety, fit and give helmets to students, and then test their newly-learned skills on our practice course.
Road traffic crashes ranks among the top 4 cause of death for all children over 5. Helmet use is the single most effective way to reduce bicycle‐related fatalities.
