WalkWorks is accepting grant applications from municipalities and other governmental bodies. Grants are offered to assist the development of Active Transportation Plans, Complete Streets policies, and Vision Zero policies.
A free webinar about the grants will be held on Friday, April 9 at noon.

- Identifies and promotes safe walking routes;
- Offers social support through guided, community-based walking groups;
- Helps schools develop walk-to-school programs; and
- Addresses local policies to increase safe walking routes.
