Activism, New Mobility, and Changing Streets in the Age of COVID-19

Wednesday, October 19, 2022 @ 5:00 pm - 7:00 pm

About this event

The SF Bicycle Coalition is excited to connect you directly with two new leaders: Executive Director Janelle Wong and Director of Advocacy Justin Hu-Nguyen! They’ll be talking about the organization’s advocacy efforts as they relate to topics on everyone’s mind: the role new mobility can play in helping to make cities more liveable and sustainable, how SF’s streets have changed since Covid-19, and what this all means for the future of our streets.

BUY TICKETS HERE!

Join us for a casual happy hour in Mission Bay where we’ll meet with SFBC’s latest additions to the leadership team: Janelle (Executive Director) and Justin (Director of Advocacy). They will each share their vision for safe streets advocacy in San Francisco, and how new mobility operators can play a role in creating a more just and sustainable transportation network in the City.

  • 5:00 pm: Event Kick-off!
  • 5:30 pm: Short speeches from Janelle and Justin
  • 5:45 pm: New Mobility Bingo
  • 7:30 pm: Event end

Each ticket will include one-free drink that can be used for both alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages. Pets are welcome to join as well!

The San Francisco Bicycle Coalition strives to create a positive and supportive environment where all people feel welcomed, seen, celebrated, and treated equitably, in line with our Strategic Plan Core Values of Transportation Justice, Sustainability, People Power, and Joy. As a member of this community, we value your participation in keeping our digital and in-person community, spaces, and events safe and welcoming.

These are our expectations of staff, Board Members, members, interns, volunteers, and visitors entering any San Francisco Bicycle Coalition space or event:

  • We approach each other with empathy and care.
  • We ask for and use each other’s pronouns.
  • We respect every person’s autonomy by seeking consent before physical contact and offering before we help or explain.
  • We take responsibility for our own participation and create space for the participation of others.
  • We are aware of the impact of our words and actions and that good intentions can have negative impacts; microaggressions, including unintended ones, are harmful and we seek to eliminate them.
  • We let someone know when we have been hurt and we try to forgive.
  • We do our best to fulfill these agreements, we hold one another accountable to fulfilling them, and we work to correct mistakes.

Staff members are always available for support with an issue, or answering any questions about appropriate behavior. If you notice someone feeling hurt or uncomfortable, please check in with them or staff. Thank you for helping keep our space safe, supportive, and fun!
