About this organization
Mission
OUR MISSION is to lead the movement to create a Bicycle Friendly America for everyone. As leaders, our commitment is to listen and learn, define standards and share best practices to engage diverse communities and build a powerful, unified voice for change.
About
Advocacy National, state and local bicycle advocacy: The League of American Bicyclists promotes and protects the rights of cyclists through advocacy, education and promotion. We advocate for cyclists on Capitol Hill and to the U.S. Department of Transportation and other Federal Agencies. We work with our affiliates to affect state and local laws, policies and programs. Our online advocacy center alerts cyclists to issues that affect them, and offers them a voice in how cycling is viewed by lawmakers in America. In March, we successfully held the 14th national bike summit, an annual advocacy meeting that brings cyclists to Capitol Hill to speak with representatives and senators. Bicycle Friendly America Program: The league is changing the look of America with the bicycle friendly state, community, university and business programs. These programs offer technical assistance from league staff, an in-depth application that gives participants an opportunity to self-evaluate, and feedback to all applicants recognized or not. The program, launched in 2003, encourages applicants to provide better facilities, encouragement activities, infrastructure and education for cyclists and publicly rewards them for doing so. Each application has specific questions that address the importance of encouraging and enabling underserved populations to bike for transportation.
