WalkBoston is a membership-based advocacy organization that works statewide to encourage, promote and facilitate walking as an integral part of everyday living. Their programs particularly promote increased walking for children, seniors, and in communities with health disparities where lack of exercise contributes to poor health. Perhaps most importantly, WalkBoston works to make sidewalk and walking conditions better for everyone. They serve as a voice for pedestrians before cities and towns, developers, and transportation agencies and planners, advocating for wider sidewalks, safer intersections, well-timed signals and other improvements that make walking more pleasant and inviting.
