A Big Year for Advocacy Advance

By Jake Knight on November 28, 2012

Over $10 million for biking and walking programs in eight communities across the U.S., new and promising partnerships among advocates and leaders, and commitments to work toward better, more walk- and bike-friendly communities. I’d say it’s been a good year for Advocacy Advance.

A partnership between the League of American Bicyclists and the Alliance, Advocacy Advance has facilitated Action 2020 Workshops to boost funding for biking and walking in eight communities this year. Read all about the victories these communities have achieved this year on the Advocacy Advance blog. Your community could be next—apply to host a workshop in 2013!

Next year, with their new and improved Navigating MAP-21 Workshops, the Advocacy Advance team will be ready to help even more communities take advantage of funding opportunities in the new transportation law.

Act quickly, and Advocacy Advance could help you accelerate bike/ped funding in your community. Apply to host a Navigating MAP-21 Workshop in 2013!

Congrats again to the Advocacy Advance team for their hard work—and for amazing results.
