The Mayor of NYC is just repeatedly showing folks how easily cities can make bold changes for our kids.
Here in #Halisky these initiatives get buried in years of studies and council proceedings until someday we get more crossing guards and a road safety education program.
New York streets belong to New Yorkers, and Soccer Streets are for the kids.
We’re turning the block outside your school into a car-free playground and World Cup celebration.
Now until June 26, you’ll find Soccer Streets in front of 50 public schools across all five boroughs. Let’s play!
