VIP Impact: Encouraging Words from a VIP Partner


Here are some encouraging words we received recently from David Seyms, Safe Routes to School/Ropes Coordinator for the Napa County Office of Education:

"Napa Safe Routes to School has been instructing students how to ride their bikes and walk to school safely for over three successful years. This school year we are participating in the VIP program and have seen amazing results regarding the community impact of our program in only four months time. VIP has recruited parents and community leaders as volunteers to help increase awareness and community participation in our Safe Routes to School programs. As a direct result we are seeing more students walk and bike to and from school, thereby increasing their daily exercise, reducing car emissions around the school and making their communities and safer and healthier place to live."  
Way to go, Napa VIP team! We're so glad to hear about the difference you all are making in your community.
