In 2010, there was no advocate more tireless or worthy of modeling than Jackie Douglas from LivableStreets in Boston. Having risen from the ranks of intern, Douglas never rests as executive director, working to improve conditions for cyclists and pedestrians; increase membership for the organization, bring in grant funding for its programming and act as the face of LivableStreets at near-daily public meetings, volunteer gatherings and public speaking events. For Douglas, the tireless dedication shows in the sophistication and success of LivableStreets campaigns, including a Better Bridges initiative that's tackling the tough task of getting better provisions for bicyclists and pedestrians on the region's river crossings. Despite her busy schedule, Douglas is generous with her time, frequently sharing her experiences and insights with other advocacy leaders in Advocacy Advance reports and Alliance Mutual Aid Calls." http://archive.constantcontact.com/fs002/1102329622679/archive/1104712251263.html Show less
