Little-known fact: In addition to publishing Streetsblog, the Livable Streets Initiative does grassroots work in New York City neighborhoods. This year you’ll find us putting on activities at community events all over the city. In particular, Livable Streets Education is organizing a big slate of outdoor family events, art projects and kid-friendly activities in conjunction with schools, neighborhood associations, and cultural organizations.

If you want to get involved in what we do, we’d love your help! You’ll notice that we’ve got an open invitation to volunteers on the sidebar. To help us out, email volunteer@livablestreets.com, and we’ll keep you posted about opportunities as they become available.
