Please join us Tuesday August 11th from 6:15pm to 7:30pm for our monthly online meetup. This month, we’ll be featuring folks from Seattle Neighborhood Greenways. They’ll talk about their vision and work on Stay Healthy Streets and open streets for businesses to expand outdoor seating. Come hear a preview of their work on how we move beyond police enforcement.

Seattle Neighborhood Greenways organizes and mobilizes people to make every neighborhood a great place to walk, bike, and live. Since 2011, they and their coalition of 16 neighborhood-based volunteer-led chapters have empowered communities to reclaim Seattle’s streets. They help create welcoming and full of life streets for everyone–old or young, poor or well off, regardless of how they get around. They are a small but mighty organization that has helped push the needle for walking and biking in our city.

This monthly social event is free and open to everyone. Call in if you want to meet other people who care about our city and hear from an inspirational speaker. RSVP and share the event on Facebook. Below are details for joining via video or phone. The line opens at 6:15pm for networking and discussion. The speaker starts at 6:30pm. We hope you can join us!
