Center for Latino Progress
Program Name: Bike Life
Bike Life Festival is an event that includes several 2-hour Bicycle Maintenance and Traffic Safety certification classes which then culminates in a day festival. These classes show youth and family members how to ride safely in the city and teach simple mechanical skills to maintain their bicycles. At the festival, we have spaces for minor bike adjustments, bicycle contests, helmet decorations, raffles, and more. During the festival, all those who took part in our BiCi Co safety classes will receive a free refurbished bicycle, lights, locks, and a helmet.
Supports Available Through Program: Transportation, guidance, mentoring, self care instruction, Career Development instruction
