Nora and Jade want to wish you all a happy National Walk to School Day! Walking to school is a lost art. According to a 2011 report from the National Center for Safe Routes to School, almost 90% of kids within a mile of their school walked or biked there in 1969. That number fell to 35% in 2009. How can we address this? Here are a few steps: - Consider organizing a walking school bus with neighbors or fellow parents - Advocate to local leaders to update plans related to walkability and support better land use strategies - Urge state and federal leaders to make Safe Routes to School a policy/funding priority The decline in walking to school is a policy choice. That also means we can *choose* a different path. . . . #nationalwalktoschoolday #kcmo #kcps #sidewalks #walkability #saferoutestoschool #waytogokc

How can we better measure social dynamics and the impact of initiatives to strengthen the social fabric? Here are two examples from #Detroit's Life Remodeled, which I profile in FRAGILE NEIGHBORHOODS. After several years of operating the Durfee Innovation Society, a neighborhood hub, the organization can now show that: 1) the neighborhood surrounding the hub has seen a large decline in crime: the 10th precinct now has the lowest crime rate in the entire city whereas before the hub opened in 2017, it had one the top ten highest in Detroit; 2) the neighborhood has seen a big boost on survey scores measuring how well the place was doing. In fact, the neighborhood received the second highest score. "The next highest is the Durfee area – a neighborhood with significant challenges and one that would not expect to be rated high in 'thriving' – as rated a close second. A likely rationale for this finding is the presence of Life Remodeled’s Durfee Innovation Society. Not only are resources readily available for local residents, but such a substantial investment in the neighborhood makes residents feel seen and heard." The data comes from a unique hyperlocal Detroit Resident Voices Survey produced by Detroit Regional Chamber and Gallup. Kudos to Chris Lambert and his whole team.

Affordable housing isn’t just about affordability—it’s about creating inclusive communities for all, regardless of race, sex, or gender. As we strive to address the pressing need for accessible housing, it’s crucial to recognize that true affordability encompasses more than just financial accessibility. It’s about fostering environments where everyone, regardless of their background, feels welcomed, respected, and empowered. #affordablehousing #seattle #kingcounty #capitolhill #inclusionmatters #diversity #belongingmatters

This exciting initiative aims to honor the amazing communities surrounding the Middle Branch through captivating visual storytelling and we're looking to hear from more voices! Reimagine Middle Branch is a community-driven project and your stories are the heart and soul of this endeavor. We've been connecting with remarkable individuals, families, community members, and organizations with all types of connections to the Middle Branch area and we're eager to hear more of these amazing stories, like Kevin's! “If I could change something about my area, I would want to renovate the buildings and create a park. There’s a whole large area of land that’s grassy and it feels like it’s being wasted when it could be a park where people could hang out, walk their dogs and stuff like that." - Kevin Story-telling holds immense power to understand the past, to shape the future of Middle Branch, to create positive change, and to transform our collective vision into reality. Whether you live or work in one of the neighborhoods included in our Plan, we want to hear your voice, your experiences, and your dreams for the Middle Branch. So, how can you get involved? It's simple!
