Wyoming Pathways substantially met the four key program goals of its work plan for 2016: expand the movement, increase funding for communities, improve policy and safety, and build safe and inviting facilities. The base of supporters increased along with the capacity to manage advocacy efforts though an improved outreach system. Over 1000 supporters regularly receive the newsletter and action alerts. The staff and board completed dozens of meetings with local governments and advocates around Wyoming, and visited many public lands offices. 0 32000 Wyoming Pathways regularly educated officials on the benefits and needs of biking and walking including the Wyoming Legislature, and with Governor Mead's office. The impact can be seen by the passage of the Bicycle and Pedestrian System act in March 2016 and subsequent implementation steps, appointment as Chair of the Governor's Task Force, development of draft report, and progress toward a final report that is due October 1, 2017. Continued progress with key State Agencies resulted in measurable impact in staff training, program improvement, and budget choices. Departments of Health, WYDOT, Parks, WBC, State Lands, Governor's office are all engaged, and despite declining state budgets, continued progress is evident. 0 28000 Wyoming Pathways participated meaningfully in the public planning process of a number of state and federal agencies, to improve agency policies and plans. Over the grant period this includes comment efforts with the National Park Service for pathways in Grand Teton, Forest Service partnerships helping plan the Pole Mountain trail system on the Medicine Bow NF that serves Laramie and Cheyenne, and engagement in the NEPA comments on Shoshone NF trail planning.
