Talking Kid-Friendly Communities w/ Darcy Kitching (video available)
Description
In this episode, I welcome back Darcy Kitching for a conversation about her research on creating more kid-friendly communities, safer, more inviting, and even joyous streets for people, and the upcoming Boulder Walk360 event she'll be leading once again this year.
So excited to welcome back Darcy Kitching for an update on her doctoral dissertation research on the topic of creating kid-friendly communities, her upcoming edition of the Boulder Walk360 event, and her efforts to grow the Streets Are For People movement in Boulder, Colorado.
