Join us on World Day of Remembrance - Sunday, Nov 16

[Faith Hall]

Hi YIPPS -

World Day of Remembrance is a major global event commemorating victims of vehicular violence and calling for safe streets for everyone.

For those in DC, we'd love to see you in person! Please share event info below (flyer attached) with your local leaders, community groups, and networks. At this year's Mall rally, the DC chapter of Families for Safe Streets will distribute crash memorial signs to volunteers for posting around the District.

I’ll be walking for my college roommate Heather Suzanne Congo.
