Who needs to be involved?
Each project is managed by its own local team, the team can be comprised of locals from education, engineering, enforcement, health care and concerned citizens. The Idaho Safe Routes to School Advisory Committee (SR2SAC) reviews and selects SR2S projects. Idaho Transportation Department’s SR2S coordinator administers the Idaho SR2S program. It is strongly encouraged for sponsors to designate a team leader or “champion” to lead the project, keep the work on track and provide progress reports to the SR2S program coordinator.

A team of community members should be involved in the development of each local wellness policy. Parents, students, and representatives of the school food authority, the school board, school administrators, and the public should be a part of the process.
