Community Outreach
The Safe Streets Fund provides funding for community programs that actively involve teenagers, older adults and other high risk populations in spreading awareness of traffic safety issues among their peers.
Youth Educating for Safety (YES) conferences, speakers programs and materials support the grass roots efforts of teenagers and children who have developed their own strategies to promote traffic safety in their schools and communities. YES and YES for Kids magazines written by and for students are distributed to 100,000 students annually citywide.
Seniors Out for Safety (SOS) theater programs, the SOS newsletter and the award-winning ALERT bingo game provide interactive means for older adults to address traffic safety issues relevant to them.
