For the fourth straight year, the Governors Highway Safety Association (GHSA) and the National Road Safety Foundation (NRSF) are funding community-based projects and programs focused on keeping youth safe while walking, biking and/or riding scooters. The State Highway Safety Offices (SHSOs) in Missouri, Oregon and Washington will each receive $25,000 for youth safety initiatives in areas with limited financial resources. Since 2022, GHSA and NRSF have provided a total of $350,000 to support projects and initiatives that make streets safer for the youngest road users.
