Volunteer for Safer Routes to Schools Programs

We are looking for volunteers who know how to have fun.

Portland’s Safer Routes to School (SR2S) program teaches biking and walking safety to elementary school children in the Portland metro area. These important lessons include community walk and bike rides that need the help of volunteers. The Safer Route program is entering its 3rd year and is building sustainable volunteer partnerships within the communities that we serve.

A team of researchers at Oregon Health & Sciences University (OHSU) are embarking on an ambitious study of bicycle commuters.

The study will track 1,000 bicyclists for one year and hopes to garner new information about the health of bike commuters and rate of injury during their commute. Data from subjects will be collected through online surveys. Participants will fill out an initial survey and then will be prompted to fill out another survey each month.
