The Spokesman Program is a unique training program that is designed to help you become a better advocate!

Each Spokesman is asked to submit a final project to implement in their community and in return, will receive: 

• One-on-one professional consultation and training to implement innovative programs in their community 

• Support and technical assistance surrounding the specifics of bicycle or pedestrian advocacy in Mississippi

• Peer Group Training sessions including informative readings, group discussion, access to educational webinars and best practice documents.

• Trainings on how to engage elected officials and increase policies, infrastructure and safety in their community

At the conclusion of these classes, it is our goal that each participant will truly feel equipped to be a Spokesman in their community!
