We will be celebrating our community and facilitating a conversation with older adults about traffic safety when walking, biking, driving and moving around DC. We are looking forward to hearing from older adult residents about their concerns and desires regarding street safety in DC. Throughout the event, participants will be able to hear from transportation experts and community leaders in DC regarding transportation.

This is an informal and free event. There will be trivia, music, speakers, vendors, and more!
