The Biden Presidency is a major opportunity for Safe Streets advocates.  President Biden lost his wife and child in a traffic accident many years ago.  The sense is that his personal experience will make him very receptive to a traffic/street safety campaign.  The immediate objective is for President Biden to set a nationwide goal of zero traffic fatalities/injuries – essentially Vision Zero on a federal level.

In support of this objective, Families for Safe Streets is gathering survivor stories in both post card and video form.

Any survivors wishing to provide a video are asked to contact Safe Streets at info@familiesforsafestreets.com; that group will conduct a short interview and then edit and format the video. Alternately, if you prefer, you may record your own video using this guidance.

Post cards should include a picture of the survivor, the lost loved one, or injuries plus a statement of no more than 40 words that you would want President Biden to hear.
