Talk about what you would like to do with friends and neighbors. Consider adding or repairing bike lanes, keeping school gyms or green spaces open for everyone after hours or weekends, creating safe and well-lit sidewalks, or improving water stations in schools or parks.

Team up with local community and faith leaders. Local non-profits or youth groups are also good candidates for joining your cause.

Talk to City Parks staff about needed repairs. Encourage your group to talk to local police and traffic safety officials about your concerns. Talk with school staff or your local school district about keeping school yards open longer with Joint Use agreements. Get on the agenda of the City Council or Board of Supervisors meeting to talk about your concerns and explain what you’d like to see done.
