Feet First builds walkable communities. Transportation and development put cars first and pedestrians last--we're the advocates for putting feet first.
Description:
Our board and staff work passionately for social justice, health, and stronger communities. Feet First's mission is carried out around the following program areas:
- community engagement
- advocacy for better policies and safety
- researching best practices
- education of professionals and citizens
Our programs include Safe Routes to School, community mapping, active community environments, and mobility education. Our membership efforts are creative and high impact. We have a very fun and smart staff. We have a place here and will truly value *you* as a volunteer at Feet First.
History:
Feet First was founded in 1996 to serve the Puget Sound region. In 2003, the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation selected Feet First to lead a partnership for their Active Living by Design program and we hired our first staff member. At the beginning of 2007 we have a staff of five and work both locally and on state-wide issues.
