ICYMI: M4A Outreach Highlight
Earlier this month, our Outreach and Engagement Team attended the Louisville Senior Center Resource and Wellness Fair. We share information and resources on mobility options for older adults and had a great time chatting with the attendees!
Kudos to Avery and Cammie of the Mobility for All Team, who presented their Bike Event Resource Map Project through the Safe Routes Partnership.
Community engagement is essential for creating change within communities. They shared a lot of great ideas on how to build capacity and share resources through a larger regional effort.
