America Walks believes in the power of communities to advance walkable, equitable, connected, and accessible places across the U.S. Working together we can create public spaces that allow people to safely walk and move. At the regional, state, and neighborhood levels, America Walks provides critical strategic support, training, and technical assistance to partner organizations and individuals to effectively advocate for change.
