  • Mission

    San Francisco can and should be the safest, most walkable city in the United States. Yet every day, at least 3 people on average are hit while walking in our city. Walk San Francisco exists to change this. We want nothing less than to make San Francisco the most pedestrian-friendly city in the United States.

    About Us

    In all that we do, we work with all kinds of people who are interested in winning safer streets including: community, nonprofit, and advocacy groups; our members; businesses; and more. Our goal is to empower those we work with to advocate using their own voices and narratives, and to magnify individual voices through coordinated action.

    Walker by walker, and also community by community, people in San Francisco are bound by neighborhood proximity, cultural affinity, shared disabilities, age, economic standing, dedication to sustainable mobility, or being related to someone who has been killed or seriously injured in a crash.

    Walk SF is dedicated to bringing the voices of all its constituencies directly to the table so individuals, communities, and groups speak for themselves, equipped with the tools and knowledge needed to be successful in advancing their interests. While Walk SF values self-advocacy, it also works to bridge the sometimes divergent needs of individuals, communities, and/or groups into a holistic solution.
