Mission

California Walks works to create safe, just, and inclusive streets and public spaces. Our mission is to be statewide voice for pedestrian safety & healthy, walkable communities for people of all ages & abilities. We believe that those who have been harmed by oppressive systems and those most impacted by planning and political decisions should direct the development and implementation of solutions, and we actively connect to and engage communities as leaders of change who drive decision-making processes in genuine ways that are based on their own expertise. We co-empower, co-create, and co-operate with communities.
