About Us

Walking: All Reasons All Seasons – Now Featuring Active Transportation is made possible through the support of Community Choices and the Northwest Health Foundation.

Transportation is more than getting from Point A to Point B. Transportation systems are the network of our communities; connecting our homes, schools, businesses, services, health care, recreation and more. Years of car-centered development and lifestyles shaped by advances in technology have contributed to rising rates of obesity and diseases associated with obesity, including heart disease, stroke, and diabetes. Regular physical activity has largely been engineered out of our daily routines. The manner in which we literally design and build our communities impacts our health, environment, economy, and social support systems.

Community Choices works for education and policy changes to create healthy environments for both individuals and the community. Walking: All Reasons All Seasons – Now Featuring Active Transportation was developed to raise awareness amongst Clark County residents about the value of communities designed to make the healthy choice to be physically active in our daily lives the easy choice. The campaign features tools and information for residents to use in living a walkable lifestyle and working for a walkable community.
