Children hardly play outside on their own in their neighborhoods. Most parents lament this fact, but feel powerless to change it. This session will give parents and neighborhood activists the tools they need to give children a life of neighborhood play, every day. Learn about six innovative communities in the US that have successfully addressed this problem, and then get a comprehensive set of step-by-step solutions.

The Possibilities Are Endless [new blog post]
We all have said "no", or "I can't", or "I won't" to choices because of the limitations we have created in our minds, regardless of the real data that proves otherwise.
You, I, everyone always has a choice. We just need to see our circumstances in a new way, and allow new assumptions to shape the possibilities we will consider before taking action - or to prevent us from avoiding any action at all.
