Encouragement Activities

Volunteer Toolkits

Parent, teacher, and student volunteers are key to having a successful encouragement program at your school. Volunteers host morning welcome tables to cheerily greet the walkers, rollers, carpoolers, and bus riders by handing out incentives on event days. Additionally, volunteers are the eyes and ears for safer streets along routes to schools, bringing potential issues to city officials and engineers at the Safe Routes Task Force meetings.

Safe Routes to Schools provides the materials to host events, such as publicity flyers, banners, announcements, contest supplies, and small incentives. Our Toolkit provides step by step instructions to make hosting encouragement events turn-key and fun.
