• Description:
  "Safe Routes to School is a collaborative effort involving multiple organizations, and has been integral in increasing partnerships between public health and school state-level officials as evidenced by the statewide case studies from California, Massachusetts, Mississippi and Oklahoma. The statewide case studies provided numerous examples of state level collaboration among officials that are resulting in important policy changes. Safe Routes to School has brought together Departments of Education and Public Health on Task Forces, Advisory Committees, Project Selection Committees and Project Development Committees. Working together on advancing SRTS on these committees has resulted in increased communications and understanding between the agencies, relationship building, opening communication channels and increased opportunities to spread a unified message about SRTS to make sure it is a successful program."
