Organizations Filed Purposes:
To lead the movement to create a Bicycle Friendly America for everyone.
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.
Membership Services - The Leagues goal is to protect and promote the rights of cyclists. We do that for our members through our programs and initiatives, through our quarterly magazine, American bicyclist, our e-mail alerts to members about legislation in their areas, and our bi-weekly e-newsletter.
Education - The League offers the only national certification program for bicycle educators. The more than 5,800 current league cycling instructors teach hundreds of thousands of students each year how to commute, share the road, ride in traffic, and more. Our curriculum includes a module for drivers. The curricula, materials, and training help people feel more secure about getting on their bikes. More than 40 league cycling instructor certification seminars are held around the country each year.
