About Comunidades Activas y Seguras
Comunidades Activas y Seguras (CAyS) is a joint project of UC Berkeley SafeTREC and California Walks (Cal Walks). After working with communities of a wide variety of backgrounds through our statewide Community Pedestrian and Bicycle Safety Program Training (CPBST) program, we learned that we needed to create a curriculum tailored to meet the needs of Spanish-speaking communities. To that end, CAyS takes a community-centered and culturally/linguistically-sensitive approach to identify and address walking and biking safety concerns.
Funding for this program was provided by a grant from the California Office of Traffic Safety, through the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
