Before you log off for the year, let’s have a conversation about the state of walkability — and get ready to start 2022 on the right track.
Join us for a free one-hour conversation with top-level representatives from USDOT and the CDC on safety, public health, infrastructure, and of course, walkability.
Tuesday December 21, 2021
11:00 am to noon Pacific Time

The past year has been extraordinarily eventful for the issues we care about. Changed behavior and changed streets due to the pandemic. Direct actions and proposals to confront racism in public spaces and public policies. A massive infrastructure bill. The promise of a U.S. National Roadway Safety Strategy.
It’s been a lot. But what really changed – and what didn’t? And what does it mean for 2022? How can we all get involved in continuing this work?
For our final webinar of the year, America Walks has brought together a panel from USDOT, CDC, local government, and local activism.
Guests include:
Robin Hutcheson, Deputy Assistant Secretary for Safety Policy at United States Department of Transportation
Ken Rose Chief, Physical Activity and Health Branch, Division of Nutrition, Physical Activity and Obesity, CDC
Arlis Reynolds, Councilmember Costa Mesa CA, and America Walks Board Member
Louise Lockett Gordon, Director of Bike Walk RVA, Richmond VA, and America Walks Board Member
The event will be moderated by our own Mike McGinn, Executive Director of America Walks. It will also be recorded, so if you can’t make it live, we’ll email you when the video is live.
