“…In South Carolina, youth participated in a park audit process to identify strengths and weaknesses in the quality of their local parks; this process enhanced both their perceived empowerment and advocacy skills (Besenyi et al, 2018). Youth inclusion in community work has also been effective in addressing policies and environments related to tobacco (Ross, Dearing, & Rollins, 2015), liquor licensing (Romero et al, 2016), and the food environment (Akom, Shah, Nakai, & Cruz, 2016).…”

Inclusive place-making is an important strategy to ensure that built-environment improvements contribute rather than detract from community health. We conducted participatory research to support 15 youth leaders as they advocated for improvements to their walk-to-school environment. The project included four phases. During Phase 1 (Route and Experience Identification), we visited 21 classrooms in three Bridgeport high schools and used an interactive mapping process with students to identify the most often used walk-to-school routes. Youth leaders also collected questionnaires from 187 peers about their school travel experiences. During Phase 2 (Route Assessment), the youth leaders examined the quality of these routes using the Microscale Audit of Pedestrian Streetscapes assessment tool. During Phase 3 (Data Analysis), the University partners analyzed the data collected in the prior phases. Percentage scores were calculated for each segment and crossing along the routes assessed. We used chi-square tests to examine associations between students’ travel model and negative travel-related experiences. Almost all segments (82%) and crossings (91%) examined received a failing grade (<64%). In addition, a greater proportion of students who walk/cycle/skate to school rather than ride in a motor vehicle reported feeling unsafe ( p = .001), missing first period ( p = .006), and lower grades ( p = .001) due to travel-related challenges. The findings from these assessments were used during Phase 4 (Youth Campaign) to advocate for safer routes to schools. We describe both the lessons learned and successes from the project. Other municipalities might benefit from replicating the youth-led, participatory approach used in this study.
