Vision

To create a community environment where children and parents alike are comfortable using alternative modes of transportation, whenever they choose. We aim to educate, train and encourage people of all ages to walk and ride their bikes more often, especially to and from school. When children learn how to safely and responsibly walk and bike to school, they add activity to their day and help reduce traffic and pollution around their school. Students also learn life lessons like responsibility, good decision making, traffic safety and community awareness. By building confidence in reducing dependence on cars, we create healthier, more sustainable communities.

Goals

2. 2.Walk ’n Rollers aims to strengthen its organizational capacity by diversifying funding streams and investing in staff, systems, and technical tools that support program growth, partnerships, and long-term sustainability. These investments will improve coordination, data tracking, communications, and financial management so we can serve more families and communities effectively.
3. 3.Walk ’n Rollers seeks to strengthen and expand our advocacy for safe, equitable walking, biking, and trail access by elevating youth voices, partnering with community groups, and engaging in local decision-making processes that shape transportation, public space, and environmental health.
