What Can You Do?

1. Organize

Some of the best opportunities for results come at the neighborhood level. We offer tools for this task, including the walkability audit and crosswalk actions. By drawing attention to dangerous crossings, you can help prioritize improvements in the pedestrian environment, educate drivers, and have fun with others promoting pedestrian rights. See some of our recent actions and get Feet First's organizing guide on our actions page.

2. Advise and Guide Transportation Projects

Feet First members provide a powerful voice around the sound. Contact your city transportation department or Feet First to hear about advisory committees in your neighborhood, city, or county. Nearly every large transportation project tries to include pedestrian representatives.

3. Take Walking to Another Level

Walking is one of the richest activities known to humankind. Feet First members understand that being a pedestrian is NOT mundane. Rather, it is at the core of citizenship, health, and humanity. Explore the riches of walking and the role that pedestrian environments play in shaping a vital culture.

4. Talk to Your Elected Representatives

Pedestrians are regularly short-changed in transportation legislation. Have a quick conversation with your elected representatives at the city and state level. Let them know that you want to see more money included for pedestrian projects. Invite them for a walk with you. Feet First will be happy to provide you with materials to support you.

5. Attend a Feet First Training Event

Feet First periodically provides training opportunities, lectures, and workshops on a variety of topics. When you join, be sure to check the box stating that you're interested in training opportunities!
