Right here in my city, community advocates, neighborhood leaders, transportation and public health professionals, planners, educators, and anyone committed to creating safer streets across Indiana convened for this full-day interactive training designed to equip community leaders, advocates, and professionals with tools to advance traffic safety initiatives with the goal of eliminating roadway fatalities in Indiana. I had the pleasure of taking visual notes for a mix of presentations, discussions, and hands-on activities, while participants explored the Vision Zero framework, learned practical advocacy skills, and left with a clear action plan.
Takeaways included a strong foundation in Vision Zero, skills in walk audits and data analysis, strategies for advocacy and communication, and a personal action plan to begin implementing change in our community.
